Well done you,
Most I have seen have a median ridge on the blade so you are OK there, the blade looks to be in great condition overall is it Wootz and have you had a chance to etch a small portion to see whats underneath

Thank you.

I talked to the dealer yesterday and he said that the blade may be made of wootz. I haven't really messed with the metal blade partially because I don't know how and because I don't want to risk damaging such a quality artifact.

So how should I try and etch the blade?
