Hi, Atlantia, This one isn't anything for looks and posted mainly to show there are no norms when it comes to these weapons.
Your Katar in wootz is really nice. You can't go wrong with old quality steel.
The design pattern is right on and at times this can help pinpoint the area it came from down to the same workmanship.
Sometimes you can see how they evolved, the old stone carvings, etc.
