Default Luzon Bolo With Wootz Blade!

Hi Guys

Ibeam was over at my house today to have me etch some of his swords. He pulled out an old Luzon bolo which he thought he saw a wootz pattern in the blade. So I did a light etch and to my amazement it was wootz. I figured the bolo must have been reworked from an older sword I don't think the Christian smiths made wootz in the late 1800s.
