Is this wootz?

I have been involved in a debate on another forum whether the sword in the photos has a wootz blade or not.
It would be interesting to hear your opinions! |
Doesn't look wootzy, more like pattern welded, sometimes called Damascus.
It was used in European presentation swords quite often. Are there any inscriptions or decorations on the blade? |
Hi Marius,
Pattern welded, no wootz IMVHO! Regards, Detlef |
Thank you for your opinions!
That's exactly what I also said: pattern welded. |
Not wootz
I agree with Sajen and kronckew. Not wootz, but a rather attractive laminated pattern that shows goof contrast. Nice blade.

The pattern almost looks like an image I saved from one of the Hubble telescope pictures.
Cosmic. ;) |
