Thanks for the clarification, I’ve seen it mentioned by collectors that Ottomans and Indians imitated asadullah cartouches on blades they forged themselves, should this be discounted as fiction? I know at least Afghans imitated these marking on Afghan blades, but I was wondering if this was also practiced among Ottomans and Indians.
