Albert, I'll add one other little comment. This blade was demounted for clean & stain, when it was remounted the tang was heated to permit insertion into the jabung used in the hilt to secure it, during this process the ricasso reached a heat of about 280-300C, this is not a bad thing & is quite common when remounting a blade. The colour in the ricasso is the evidence of this.
