Nice observation on Italian origin, But, italians dont use W in their alphabet, Austrians do use W.
And there are several yatagans in Croatian museums in Dalmatia with identical, writing all atributed to Austrian.
In this case it is for sure latter aded Austrian version of name Marko Vukasović, very comon name in dalmatian background Dalmatinska Zagora, mostly populated with vlaji or morlaci.
