Default Engraving Services around LA? (Chinese Letters)

Like the title says, does anyone know any shop that engraves Chinese letters? metal surfaces. I know Sears and other stores engrave English words, but no one can do Chinese.

Anyone know any place? Doesn't matter how far or how much..

Por Favor! Thanks

I need a Zippo engraved. So it shouldn't be too hard. I work in SGV.. not too sure where to look. Maybe i'll go around supermarkets and ask.

If I am not mistaken, @ Santa Anita Mall. There is a store that sell knives and swords that does engraving. It has been years so I don't know if that place is still open.

are you trying to write "Ching Chong Ling Long Ting Tong" on it the Zippo? that'll probably be too long and will wrap around..

If I go to UCLA, I'd engrave Ching Chong Ling Long Ting Tong on a brick and toss it on her face
