no to much time to do the manipulation, and now we are in Paris in Damascus, the blade has been cleaned, and I took 2 pic's - one for the surface - one for the thikness the specialist told me that, it was à nice "johar" ?? definitely, it's not the type of wootz what the picture from "Oriental-Arms" shown I bought from Boukhara (Uzbekistan) a knife, with the same wootz steel, it's a new made production, and I didn't be very impressed, just to come back with a "souvenir" I will prepare a post about it à + Dom |

Might be a multi bar pattern welded damascus, certainly not wootz steel.
Seing the photos of the whole blade makes me wonder whether it might be some fake etched pattern. The details look real but the whole think doesn't feel right.Should definitly be cleaned end re-etched on a small sample part. |
