If you are pouring hot wax on on a blade you will get a random shaped blob maybe that is why the border is so irregular.

Yes I know Lew, but to make it need you could have made the mark inside the wax.

This is going to make an interesting experiment I have a friend that is a blade smith and has all the supplies for a test run. I will email him and see if he can recreate this type of mark on some steel scraps.
