I tend to agree Gustav. I am always a bit reticent to make these judgements based on photos alone, especially with blades that seem to be washed to the point of looking old, but you may be correct here. There is a certain color in the iron that also leads me to believe this blade is contemporary, but colors in photos can easily be a bit off due to light color temperature.
