Here is one in my collection with a pretty good wootz pattern (image showing the full sword is pre-etch)

A.alnakkas,
It is a fantastic blade, but could you please show some close ups of the hilt, and tell a bit about what it looks like - please. |

Apologies about the lower quality of the photos. I think the sword is a later marriage. How old? not sure. Blade has the common design of North Indian/Afghan blades but I guess these were based on an earlier Persian design?

Thank you for the close ups of the hilt. I will have a closer look at them. I have however lightened the disc a bit.
