Let me tell you a story. In January I was trying to think about what to get my father in law for his birthday. I met with a Bladesmith and decided on a knife made from Damascus steel. Over a two month period, I met with the Bladesmith to create this knife. I then decided I wanted to have my father in law's name engraved on the blade. The Bladesmith assured me he could make this happen. Days before my FIL's birthday he told me that his engraver fell through and we had no way to get it done. In a panic, I Googled engravers, I needed this in two days. Everyone I called said they needed a five day window. And then, I came across Arch Engraving in Fenton. I told them, as I had told everyone else, the story about why I needed this done and quickly. I'm not sure who I spoke with that day but they took a personal interest in what I needed. This was on Thursday, three days before the birthday. They said come on in and we'll talk. An hour later I was there, with a paper cut out of the knife, as it was still in final production. I spoke with Eddie and Liz, who were the production people. They explained how the laser engraving would affect the Damascus steel and how the engraving would contrast with the pattern in the steel. They also mocked up a proof based on the paper cut out. They showed me different engravings they thought would fit it, without even actually seeing the knife. The following morning, my Bladesmith brought them the completed blade. Todd, the engraver, sent me mock up pictures on what it would look like. I agreed to what he suggested, and by days end on Friday my knife was complete. Jeff was my salesman for Arch Engraving. He made sure that everything was kept on schedule and kept me informed. The reason this review is so long, is because, all though they are a business, somehow they felt and heard my concern and made it happen! So if you need anything engraved, go to Arch Engraving. And tell them Rudy says Hi! By the way, my Father in Law...
Read moreI was looking for a company that could make a dedication plaque for our church. Before finding Arch Engraving, I went to another local engraving company. The office was dark and dirty, there were products with an inch of dust sitting all over the place and I stood around a long time just waiting for someone to ask me if I needed some assistance. Needless to say, I walked out from that bad experience. I went to Arch Engraving in Kirkwood and was immediately greeted by a gentleman who listened to me describe what I was looking for. He suggested that I go to their Fenton store and talk with Bill. Am I so glad for that advice! At their Fenton store, I met someone who definitely knows his business--Bill Collier. He spent a lot of time with me and showed me many different plaques, as well as describing the materials used in each one. I learned about bronze, holly bronze, aluminum and lettering. The plaque I chose is an 8x10 bronze and is absolutely gorgeous. The plaque was finished in the timeframe Bill said it would be. Bill also showed me exactly how the plaque should be hung on the wall and provided the hardware to hang it. Arch Engraving will be my "go to" company for any printing or engraving needs I have...
