Re: the sword I posted, there is sort of a small "Y" etched off center & very close to the blade tip (both sides). I have another sword that is a few inches shorter, well made, nice file work & also heavy; that has the same "Y". I suspect the same smith made both swords. Mackers mark or talisman? Anyone else have that mark?
