I'm sorry, but I just can't see any deliberate attempts at the formation of a 'kirk' pattern on this blade .

Hi, Rick, Your right about the forced patterns. It shows those three spaced patches and once again between the quillions and nearer the blade tip. The central ones are about where the blade arcs. So its likely they are naturally occurring from forging. Thank you all for your information and excellent Nimcha examples. Steve
