ToddsPoint Gold Member Mar 2, 2018 5,556 13,853 Todds Point, IL Primary Interest: Metal Detecting Apr 13, 2021 #8 Design was made with a wiggle tool. Looks like a small screwdriver and sharp. End of tool is "walked" back and forth as it moves forward. Very common on gun engraving and goes way, way back. Gary
