Hi @DwayneB,
Engraving something on the surface of a metal piece sounds like a job for a diamond-drag bit, like the McEtcher
@peteseyeview apparently did that just yesterday on titanium, so my guess is it would work in pretty much any blade steel.
If you are on Instagram, check out Carbide3D’s post from yesterday, about making a custom belt buckle on a Nomad (alternative gift idea for your team ?)
When one needs to engrave deeper than just scratching the surface, a PCB engraver might be the right tool (example from the store), but steel is probably a bit too much to ask in that case.
