Dear Friends; I picked this up in a pawnshop here in town. The scabbard was damaged, so I got it for a pretty good price.

The blade intrigued me because of its pamor, and because I believe that the markings on the edge are 'bulan', or 'moons', which supposedly are marks of a good blade.

Can anybody help me with identification?
