Best,

I was thinking of the same sword, here are a couple different images that may show the damascus blade a little better.

Hello Mr Baskurt,

I have only just noticed that I have missed your last reply and would like to apologise for this oversight, I hope you did not think that I ignored it deliberately.
I can only put it down to getting old and forgetful and trust you will accept my apology. Thank you for the information re the blade stamp and I will try and provide a clearer photo of it once I have received my PC from the repairers and it is up and running.
Best regards
Miguel

Hello Mr Baskurt,
I have now had my PC returned but regret that I cannot obtain a clearer image of the stamp, probably due to my ineptitude with a camera, sorry but it looks like the stamp we've got will have to suffice.
Regards
Miguel

Hi Sylektis,
I would say the same family, second part of 19th c.
Completely Turkish ottoman, even if it belongs to your Greek ancestors.

PS: Your photos in the other thread on belts are amazing. Thanks.
