Thank you all for your compliments and comments.

I know that the 'dancing' fighting swords are a 'delicate' subject.
The blade looks really strong and good for fights.
By the way, you can dance even with a fighting sword.
If you look the old photographs (end of 19th c.), women dance with Ottoman kilij on the head. Nowadays belly dancers continue this tradition.

I'm more interested in the stamps and a date for the blade...

Regards,
Kubur
