Sorry for the mistake - let me continue: So if I understand it well, this should be common (without stones) Uzbeki sabre/shaska. Which type of wootz ?

Martin

Central Asia, no doubt. But it is not wootz; rather, indian type " bird's eye" mechanical damascus. Very pretty.

I agree; seems to be folded steel.
