Robin Hood Dog Tags

I really enjoy the BBC Series Robin Hood.  In it, he gives his outlaw group members a hand-carved wooden "dog tag" made by Will Scarlett.  I wanted to incorporate one into my outlaw archer costume but, for the life of me and Google, could not find any for sale.  Even finding pictures of them is hard.  So, I decided to make my own.  I want to open an Etsy account and maybe sell some if anyone like me wants some.  I'm pretty happy with how they turned out and they'll probably just get better as I make more.  Each one is individually handmade and hand engraved by me so no 2 are ever going to be alike.  Let me know what you think.

Looks great. I for one would be interested in purchasing one. Keep up the nice work.

I made 9 more today, with the engraved design on both sides.  I did put them for sale in my Etsy account for anyone who may be interested.  I already sold 1, which surprised me, considering I only put them up for sale last night.

Additionally, I do want to voice a concern over the potential copyright infringement that many exist in the "recreation" and especially sale of an item used in another persons copyrighted works (the BBC series "Robin Hood").  The recreation for personal use may be debatable, however the sale "for profit" is not.

Admittedly the most relevant parts being the links for more information.

I already have an inquiry in to obtain copyright permission to use the design.  I changed my sig.
