Had this sword awhile now and havnt managed to find any of the same form or proportions. What is it? Is it just a tulwar with unusual bladed? Also id like to know if it is wootz and if not what is it. ive tried to photograph the patern best i can but its hard to catch the rite light. The patern is the entire length of the blade and does look like a wootz piece i have but not exactly the same. the blade is 4 inches across at the widest point, Blade length 63 inches, 77 inches overall. Theres also some text on the disc pommel but its faded and translating it i imagine would be very hard but would be intrested to know if anyone can from what remains.
