What type of engravings appear on these manganese steel blades?

 Updated Mar 2026

The blades in this collection feature two distinct engraving styles. One piece carries chrysanthemum motifs alongside the wave-engraved surface, drawing on the kiku β€” Japan's imperial flower β€” as a decorative symbol of longevity and nobility. The other uses flowing wave patterns across the blade flat, referencing the seigaiha and water imagery common in Japanese decorative tradition. Manganese steel is particularly receptive to this kind of surface work because its grain structure holds engraved lines cleanly without the blurring that can occur in lower-carbon alloys. The result is fine detail that remains legible across the full length of the blade.
