hi dave .. i cant tell you any thing about kimber but i can say that i have engraved and gold inlayed severial ss colts 1911 and i found out that the slide is hard but can be engraved , i used steve lindsays carbide/colbolt chisels for that and the frame is soft .. i hope this will help .. ron p.

Thanx Ron

Do those Lindsay carbide/carbolt chisels make a big difference over the carbide tools?
