 Dom,
Thanks for the clarification - I thought there was a cannon when it came to the spelling of the Prophet's name and did not realize it could vary based on the local pronounciation.
I guess this means the blade is not Turkish or persian, which means India is a very likely option. 
Thank you,
Teodor
