Flame hardening - Kaen yakiire

Japanese: 火炎焼入れ - かえんやきいれ
Flame hardening - Kaen yakiire

…Steel manufactured for this purpose is specifically called nitrided steel. Surface hardening can be achieved by flame hardening, in which only the surface layer is austenitized by flame, or by induction hardening, which takes advantage of the property that high-frequency heating is limited to the surface layer. Carburizing uses a method similar to nitriding, such as using molten salt, gas, or reduced-pressure arc. …

From [Surface hardening]

Hardening is a process in which only the surface layer of gears, cylinder inner surfaces, crankshaft journal surfaces, etc. is hardened to improve properties such as hardness and wear resistance. It is generally applied to steel materials. There are induction hardening, flame hardening, electrolytic hardening, etc.
[Induction hardening]
A method that uses Joule heat generated by high-frequency current as a heating source.

*Some of the terminology that refers to "flame hardening" is listed below.
