there is none.you got to grind a spot to check the size of the spark, color and size denotes carbon content..... you could, if you really had to know the material, find a NDT lab and have it annualized, but that would be expensive. Be better to just enjoy it for what it is, a mystery well made custom blade.you say you got it in a estate sale, doesn't have mars on it from use, and the blush isn't worn off, next gun and knife show you have close to that area, carry it there, some of the small knife maker's that go to the local shows can probably ID the work........
