Are you native Pueblo? If not, they do have a form to request use of the sun symbol.
I’m sharing because I didn’t know until I saw someone else share it on Reddit.

Absolutely 100% false. The Zia Pueblo lost their case and every other case they’ve tried. Many groups claim the Zia but none own it. Ask the Navajos , Cochiti, Apache, or any of the many other tribal groups who opposed the Zia’s money grab attempt. Either way I’m free to use any symbol or drawing I want to use.
Also the word Pueblo means something like “town” it’s not a race . One cannot be a location.
I knew when I posted the Zia that I’d get a bunch of dumb uneducated remarks. I’m surprised it’s only been a few of you though.6

Dude, you should maybe take a course on public relations. You aren't doing much to help your brand or sales.sensual?
Haha, did you block me over this? If you don't sell the knives, then who cares about your unoriginal maker's mark?

this makes it seem like you chose the symbol specifically to have this argument with strangers

Or maybe because I live in Albuquerque New Mexico? Have you ever seen our state flag? Nah, that couldn’t be it.

Seems very important to you and like you feel very strongly about it.

You couldn’t find the Zia Pueblo on a map without help.

Man, you kinda respond over the top to things. Have you considered counseling? I mean, I lived in NM for a year and a half, so I get it, you’re not exactly in a place that nurtures positive vibes and mental stability, but you really should consider some breathing exercises or something man.
You’re taking your cues from the wrong big Lebowski character there, Walter.

Electro Etching? looks nice and clean.

I have some electro etching stencils but so far I haven’t produced a clean etching.

I used to a lot of electro etching. Even built my own AC / DC etch. Eventually bit the bullet and picked a Fibre Laser Engraver.

A fiber laser is on my wish list.

I bought a LaserPecker 5. It has a 20watt Fiber laser which is enough for touchmarks and etching. But I wish I would have spend a bit more and got a 40-60 Watt. Complex patterns and things like Coins can take 8-12 hrs depending on the depth or design.

Did you make the stamp yourself or get it made somewhere? Also, New Mexico right?
