Make it personal
Put your name on it.
Make your Dutchman unmistakably yours. Whether it's your name, your nickname or your braai title, it belongs on the tong. Because let's be honest — someone will try to claim it. This way, they can't.

How it works
- 01
Choose your piece
Pick a Dax Tong or Coal Fire Starter and tick “Make it personal” on the product page.
- 02
Type your words
A name, a nickname, a braai title. Up to 20 characters, engraved exactly as you type them.
- 03
We burn it in
A high-precision laser follows the exact path of your text, permanently marking the steel. Clean, detailed, built to last.
- 04
Delivered to you
Engraving adds 1–2 extra working days. Need it for a specific date? Leave a note at checkout and we'll do our best.

How do we engrave?
We use a high-precision laser to permanently engrave your text into the arm of the tong or the shaft of the fire starter. Once your words are set in our design software, the laser follows the exact path, burning the text into the metal with pinpoint accuracy.
It doesn't scratch off, wash off or fade in the heat of the fire — it's part of the piece for as long as the piece lasts. Which, with a Dutchman, is a long time.
