I payed 5$ expecting these to be made in Taiwan or China but delightfully surprised they are made in the US of A. went to google how much its worth and couldnt help but laugh at there website saying its good for cheese.

also i payed 5$ for a set but its missing the letter A, G, I, and L which kinda sucks but i can just use my initials for stamping parts.

yo how do the stamps work? do you hammer it into the material u wish to stamp?

Used to use these to stamp dates into propane cylinders when re certifying them

What we did was use a modified clamp to hold them in line and tap them hard with a hammer, free hand was basically impossible

I'm also curious how it works, like wouldn't that smash up the cheese

You would take the stamp then put the object you want to stamp on something solid such as a metal plate or concreate assuming the objects small of course then use a hammer to pound the letter or number in.
