A Horse is a Horse (of course, of course).

Or is a horse just a horse?

If you’ve ever taken on an engraving project for a “horse person”, you know the answer to this question.

Horsemen (and women) tend to be very particular (actually downright picky) when it comes to their horses.

(To me, all that matters is if it will buck me off or not. The closer it is to the ground – the better!)

But if you go to engrave a horse pattern for a client, you’d better know what you’re doing.

Below are some free patterns of horse designs for use in your engraving projects.

Engraving Patterns – Dragons

Don’t be scared – these aren’t the scary dragon types.

To be honest, Dragons really aren’t my thing so I can’t even give you an (educated) example of where you would use these.

Maybe on a knife, sword or other medieval object?

However, I am sure some of you can come up with a bunch of ideas of where to use these designs or what items to engrave them on. Please leave your ideas, suggestions or comments below this post.

Already have some dragon designs engraved?

If so, send them to us at info@profitablehobbies.com – we would love to show your work to the network.
