It is an honor that the Marine Corps gave me the title of Hobbyist to use license number 20171 to use their emblems on my products.  This sword is an example of many things I can do to honor you or your loved one.  My oldest brother was the proudest Marine you would ever meet.  Unfortunately he is not with us anymore but his spirit lives inside of me whenever I make one of these.  If you want a sword just like this all I would need is your rank and your name.  Depending on how long your name and rank is the final product might look a little different.  I use a light oak stain so the laser engraving stands out.  If you want anything added or something different or stained a different color please email your suggestion and I will give you a custom price.
