The seller told me it was 19th century (but you could be right ofcourse).

I noticed the blade screams for an etch, but I have to try finding out what is the best way of etching the blade. I am not familiar with that. Maybe when you have some time left you sent me an email how to do it step for step, and what time it takes.



Generally:
Thanks gentlemen for sharing all your vision on my "friend".

Kind regards,
Maurice
