Thank you. Thats a very similar cartouche. I am just hoping that someone who can translate this cartouche will see this posting. It would be lovely to know how old this blade is, and who made it. Sadly the grip plates are a badly fitting wood, which I think must be replacements. I oiled the blade with oil of cloves, and then rubbed it with Renaissance Wax. Hopefully this will protect the beautiful steel for a few more years to come.
