Hello Tim,

An old thread that I have just come across. Does this look familiar ?

22 inches long with an 11 inch blade.
Steel and dark wood.
I cannot make anything of the mark, even under high magnification I cannot even tell the type of script.

Nice though

Regards
Royston

Yes. To me there is nothing African about them. The work especially the bolster looks North India to Nepal.?
