Every single harmonica I own is engraved with my initials and the date 
of acquisition.  I got into the habit of doing this because I'd become 
confused about how long they were lasting before they failed. 
Customisers engrave the plates with the manufacture date and then the 
date of subsequent repairs.  If you were really worried about losing a 
harmonica you could always engrave your driver's licence number on the 
back.  I have lost all of my harmonicas at once but it was my fault for 
leaving them in the car of a stranger who had given me a ride.  fjm
