As with most things I try to do, getting better pictures took a lot longer than it should have.
The faces of the branding irons are attached with screws, 2 for the smaller one and 4 for the larger, so it would appear that they're replaceable. I can't find a name on the larger one, but the smaller is stamped "ARGO" and "patent pending". They both have RCEME tags describing them as "branding iron arrow in 'C' ". Both were declared serviceable in 1965. The smaller one has a DND number 5120-21-108-8434. This number on the larger one has gotten wet, but the last 4 digits are also 8434. The workshop order numbers are 5105682 for the smaller and 5105464 for the larger.
