Rick Eaton makes custom knives, but he doesn't stop there. He also engraves his custom knives, adding flush gold inlay and fine line shading. But he doesn't stop there either — he also teaches other engravers how to do the same.

As an instructor at the GRS Training Center in Emporia, Kansas, Eaton has passed his knowledge on to dozens of students. The 2010 training year, though, brings a new course for intermediate engravers who are ready to work on a custom, high-quality knife. This course with Rick Eaton will allow students to transition to achieving a higher level of work on professional stainless steel knives.

Here are just a few examples of the fine custom knifemaking and engraving work done by Eaton. If you are interested in elevating your skills, join Rick Eaton this year at GRSTC for a course in custom knife engraving.
