Hello Emanuel, I've noticed what looks like waves on the cutting edge of the blade (pictured below) where the downward curve seems to start. Can you tell me if this is correct? If it is may I suggest that the reason for the down curve in this might have been caused by the blade being bent at this point by having struck against a solid object. I have seen this before on other long thin bladed swords where someone ( not knowing any better) has tried to cut things like a small tree. Just speculation on my part, but it could explain the strange blade profile.
