Also, I had similar blade with similar welded tang. The blade was antique wootz of similar pattern, it was also Persian or Syrian, and I know that the weld repair was done in Syria in the late 1900's, as it was common practice there to "restore" that way. I believe yours came by the same way.
Also, congrats on buying it. A profound bargain, and even includes the free presentation box
