Default Damascus Blade

This is definitely a Damascus steel blade, pattern welded, in the pattern known as Turkish ribbon. It is clearly seen on the fifth photo from top. However the blade has seen better days and I wonder if it will be possible to polish and etch it so as to bring out the pattern.

Nice blade.
