This has always been my understanding of the definition of "tangkis". It is not the name of a specific pamor pattern per se, but when there is a different pamor on each side of the blade. I am not sure that this Henri's blade qualifies for the category since there seems to be no pamor on one side.
I could be wrong, but his appears to be an accidental pamor. Such pamors are usually considered special due to their accidental nature i believe.
