I have checked again and the blade is 2 ins wide just below the hilt then 1.75 ins. Not sure about the blade looks like carbon steel to me.

 Hello Miguel,
Wootz IS carbon steel and when polished, it is practically undistinguishable from plain carbon steel.
I agree with the age of the blade suggested in previous postings and with the high probability it is not wootz. However, it remains a slight probability that the blade is older than it was estimated and it is made of wootz. And I would explore this possibility.
Anyhow, both are very nice and well made blades!
