Red face Knives

Okay so I make custom knives, yes one of ten thousand others. I am forging and grinding 1095, 1084, 52100 and W2 steels and I clay temper all my knives. The backs and tangs should be about 50 rhc. A guess only. easy to file. So for a border design and floral design what graver material and what point styles would you masters suggest. I don't mind working out the kinks but don't want to reinvent the wheel.
