The blade looks like it is pattern welded, not wootz.

Hi again,
You may well be right I don't have sufficient expertise to differentiate between all the different patterns in the steel, perhaps I should have said watered.

Hi Jens,
Thanks for the link. My item is very similar apart from its blade being more slender, makes me wonder whether it was made for a very young man or a female warrior or is that just wishful thinking on my part.
