Hi Karuhi. I was trained using the push hand style engraving and have to say you may be able to cut steel that way you will not be happy with the results. The hammer or air powered systems are 10 times better at creating the look. That said I use the GRS tools and they work fine but I am thinking of adding Steves Paulm system because I would like to go portable someday and I would have spent the same money. I just knew of GRS before Steve. GRS does have handpush system at good price and you can do a lot with that method. The new skill my make it possible to afford the upgrade. See my test plate I did on copper ( all done without hammer or power equipment. Sharpening is the most important thing, and I think each of us find the angles that suit them, get them using the graver design sujestions we find in the education we seak out to learn what we should be doing from these master craftsmen that we meet here and elswhere. Good luck, chickenscratcher
