Nice katar. I recently squires a similar one from a fellow forumite. That looks like a recycled sword blade. The markings may very well refer to Genoa, as genoise blades were thought to be of very fine quality. However, I would not be surprised if the blade is of local manufacture with the inscreption added to increase value. This would certainly explain the peculiar writing style, and I am only referring to an inverted "N".
