Q.
Type I specifies up to three initials, can I have more?
A.
Yes. We can do more that three letters, but keep in mind, the more
letters you have, the wider the brand will be. For this reason, we usually
limit to four or five letters. Please add $1.00 for each additional letter
over three.

Q.
Can I have symbols on my brand?
A.
Yes. Ampersands (&), small hearts and small stars can be used (ex:
J&M) for the same price as Type I. If you have other symbols in mind,
please call.

Q.
Can you make any design?
A.
We use the same basic principals in making our branding irons that were
used by ranchers for their cattle brands. We bend flat pieces of metal
into shape and weld them together. Therefore, in order to maintain
authenticity, there are some designs that we just cannot do.
If you have an idea for a brand, fax, mail or e-mail a drawing, and we will be happy to take a look and let you know if your design is possible. TOP
Q.
What kinds of things can be branded?
A.
Even though we call it a "steak brand" you can brand almost
anything. Hamburgers, chicken breasts, pork chops, even grilled cheese
sandwiches, tortillas and pie crusts. They can also be used to brand wood
or leather. Just let your imagination be your guide.

Q.
Any suggestions for gift occasions?
A.
Branding irons have been given as gifts for all occasions: Christmas,
birthdays, weddings (both for the bride and groom and as gifts for the
wedding party), housewarmings and graduations, just to name a few. They
also make great gifts for guest speakers or awards. Engraved plates can be
obtained from most trophy or engraving companies and attached to the cedar
boards or the base of the cowboys to commemorate special events.
