I believe it to be Scandinavian. At least the term is. You could also call it scrimshaw, but that term is usually reserved for the process performed on bone and ivory. I ran on to the process while researching scandinavian knives and sheath making (try an internet search for sami knife sheath). Then again when researching spoon carving. There are special tools out there and I’m sure that there is far more techniques involved in it.
I’m simply sharing a simplified version that I find useful and had to put a name to it.
Hope that helps.
