“I come from a family of artisans, gunsmiths, and engravers, some of which were also veterans. When I engrave something, I feel like I’m walking on the same path, and I’m proud of that. I’ve been at this for five years now and I want you to know that when I say LaserUS will deliver ‘Quality Metal Etchings and Engravings’, you will get exactly that and nothing less.”
