Create a Legacy: United States Marine Corps Logo Stamp

You want to make a powerful statement with your leatherwork, and this United States Marine Corps stamp is the perfect tool. Specifically, this stamp features the iconic Eagle, Globe, and Anchor (EGA), surrounded by a rope border and the words “UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS.” Clearly, the design is deeply meaningful. Measuring about 3 inches in diameter, it’s large enough to be the stunning centerpiece on a custom wallet, bag, or patch. Furthermore, we make the stamp from incredibly tough 1/4″ thick cast acrylic, so it will give you crisp, clear impressions for years to come. Rest assured, this product is fully authorized for production under Hobbyist License number 641-25.

A Tool Built to Last

First, you should know that this stamp comes with a lifetime guarantee. Consequently, if the stamp ever stops giving you a great image, simply send it back to us, and we will quickly ship a new one to you. However, you must remember this guarantee is void if you use the stamp with a hammer. Therefore, we always recommend using a press of some kind to protect your investment and get the best results.

We offer many other stamps to help you tell your unique story. For example, our themes include 2nd Amendment, Firefighter, Celtic, Viking, Military, Veteran, and various Flags.

The Secret to Perfect Impressions

You must press these stamps into the leather using an arbor press or a vise. Indeed, the stunning image you see in the picture was created on a Harbor Freight Arbor Press. We used a thick piece of leather on top of the stamp to help spread out the pressure evenly. Most importantly, the leather must be cased (or wetted) before you stamp it. Be sure to moisten the entire piece of leather using a wet sponge. If you don’t wet all the leather, you will get water spots on the finished piece.

These are made for use with an arbor press or by placing in a vise and applying slow, even pressure. These WILL NOT withstand hammer blows.

Arbor Press Instructions:

To begin, place a piece of cased leather on a solid platform under the arbor press anvil. Next, set the stamp on top of the cased leather. Then, place a solid platform (it can be metal or wood stock) on top of the stamp. Afterward, apply pressure downward with the arbor press and hold for about 15-20 seconds. Finally, check the result and repeat the process as necessary to achieve the perfect depth.

Vise Instructions:

Alternatively, place the cased leather and stamp between two hard objects (like small boards). Be sure to squeeze them tightly so the stamp stays put. Next, place the whole stack inside the vise. Then, tighten the vise carefully and hold for 15-20 seconds. After that, release the vise and check the depth of your imprint. Again, repeat as necessary until you get the impression you want.
