Hi all ,this is another find which I have recently picked up , Im very much a novice but thought this dagger was of good quality , I believe its of Persian origin with ivory handle and is quite long measuring in total 40 cm and blade 29 cm , im stuck on whether this is a wootz blade ive tried to take a picture the best I can, is it advisable to etch the blade ?
