Tatyana I do beg your pardon if I am wrong. I can only form ideas through a PC. I have to add that zinc is not a denigration of the item it is in fact the opposite, a sign of quality having been used as a decorative white metal in the east thousands of years before it was smelted in western Europe. Please try the magnet test as it does look so different from the blade and I am the second to dare mention so.
