IP, your blade looks as though it has literally been through the wars. There is certainly evidence of repeated sharpening and likely damage repairs. Given its fighting heritage, I would give it a good clean when you have the time and etch it to better show some of the areas that appear damaged. You may get a clearer idea of what this old blade went through in its fighting career. Personally, I like exploring old warriors.

Regards,

Ian
