Hey just a moment... Now that I have watched with attention the signs,
it's clear that the marks are six. From hilt to point: one alone, 2 signs one close to the other, other two near one each other, and than one alone. More it seems clearly that the signs have been made with a movement from the hilt to the point of the blade. Maybe if they are battle scars the movent could be from point of blade to hilt, or not?
