I think this is a good question. It is something I have pondered as well, looking to get into engraving. I would of course assume that the engraving isn't going to be deep enough to hurt anything.
When I started making leather goods a while back, anytime i made a holster for someone I drew up a waver making the user responsible for checking the items condition before using every time. I know my holsters wouldn't fail, but in the event something happening due to the users poor judgement, I wanted to make sure I am clear of any liability. I had a professor in Grad school who always applied the "CYA" practice. Cover your ass. I think a waver would suffice in most any application. I haven't had anyone refuse to buy an item because Ive asked them to sign one.
