Hi all

After seeing a thread recently ref a wootz katar i though i would share mine for comment as i acquired recently for very little as the dealer selling it obviously hadnt looked closely enough to see the obvious wootz pattern.

After a carefull clean the wootz is now easier to see. It has a very light constrast though and is very hard to photograph.

I know these are tricky to age, but any info anyone can chip in would be greatly appreciated.

Don't you just love a bargain?
