Thanks Gavin,
I think this is the link for the old post, but I don't think the link in it works, maybe Ward can help, I'll email him. http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=2302 |

Gav, thanks for the article. It has some very good information. The blade I was researching, at the first look, I thought the mark was new and not original Assadullah, there were lots of tell tales but I just wanted to make sure I am not telling someone the mark is fake while it was not. I have to take a closer look at the blade someday, since I think it might have step pattern wootz.
