I suspect that's not wootz. Looks Thai (or perhaps Burmese) to me.

I have to agree with you Andrew it looks Thai to me, this blade shape is still common in Thai made knives though I do not remember any with that style of guard

Yeah, we've had a number of threads about knives like this. The engraving on the blade is what made me think perhaps Burma.

Heavily pitting Thai knife (E-Nep). Modernized, could be post-WWII era.
