What are you using to mark your knives?

Ok I get it now Koyote. I was jut funnin before.
Now that I understand what you are saying here. Your problem is the area that you are using the beeswax on, is not completely clean.Clean with Windex to remove all residue and try the wax not super hot, just hot enough too flow. When real hot it runs over the area and doesn't really stick. You may have to apply with a tongue depressor or popsicle stick to make it bond better. It might also help to warn the steel slightly so that the steel and the wax cool together. Hope that helps!
 
interesting. I've been cleaning with dish soap and hot water and then acetone. But maybe it's the dish soap. I'll try the Oasis on it. (my biodegradable degreaser of choice)

I've been dipping the blade in my beeswax double boiler. hold for 15 seconds and pull out. The coating is smooth and even.
