Help needed please !

I've just got my most recent acquisition - it's a georgain kindjal, as they sometimes do it has a damascus like pattern in a fuller.

First two photos are from my kindjal (uncleaned fuller), the last one is from a kindjal appraised by oriental-arms (you guys are the best in kindjals !) as a true damascus (fuller has been well cleaned).

Is it the same pattern/same damascus, or mine is just damascene (etched pattern, with pig's fat or wax creating the pattern) ?

Thank you so much !
