ok, I'm curious.

Shaved- as in the hair into TM?

Carved- as in branded or cut?

are you sure old school it was shaved. I could be wrong, but my team mates back then said it was carved, as in a scar TM, it looked like a scar to me as I remember. What ever it was, it was quite a conversation piece, and still is. Someone needs to delve in deep and go to the main source if he's still around.

To put an end to this debate I will tell you first hand what it was. I graduated with Jon "DoDo" Williams. He had the letters TM cut out of his chest hair. After his many wins he would pull down his singlet and let everybody know where he was from.

I was one of Jon's team mates who SHAVED the TM in his chest. It took three BIC razors and needed touched up every two to three days.
