The knives were wrapped way too tight. It was a challenge to cut through the tape. The owner is a good and decent man and I like the kiosk location. His prices are fair. Please take these comments solely as constructive criticism. I wish him well.

Dropped off Thurs and was ready Tues, coulda been even faster if needed.

I visited 3 other shops before going with Heirloom and it was a night and day comparison in their favor on expertise, confidence and quality.

It's rare to find a local shop you can truly trust with something meaningful, and Heirloom Engravers has earned that trust with me. I'll definitely be back.

When I called, Stephanie answered and was very polite. She patched me through to Cliff, who explained the difference between laser etching and engraving and provided a very reasonable quote.

Cliff even laser-etched my daughter's initials on her digital camera as a Christmas gift, free of charge! The quality of the work was amazing, and Cliff's knowledge and patience were greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Etched Media, and special thanks to Stephanie and Cliff for their exceptional service! Neil

I am so happy. I bought three stainless steel cuff bracelets off the Internet to give to my…read moredaughters as a gift for Valentine's Day. I wanted to make them special by getting them engraved with their names on each of the bracelets. I called Laser Mark's and I spoke to Jacob who let me know that the laser is flat and they may not be able to engrave a curved bracelet. However, he agreed to let me bring the bracelet cuffs into his shop so he could look at them to determine if it would be possible. He let me know that it may not work but he was willing to try engraving them. I told him that I was willing to risk it since the bracelets were inexpensive and I could purchase them again if it didn't turn out. I am so happy that I took the risk because the bracelets look so much better with the girls' names engraved on them and it makes the gifts more personal. Jacob took special care to put a black tape over the area on the bracelet that was to be engraved to test over the tape so I could see how the name would appear and give my approval before doing the actual engraving. It was a cool process and fun to participate in.
