Pictures of the cartouches .
Translation anyone ? Interesting about these; when you look at them the work looks a bit sloppy what with the material running off the edge . Well, it actually carries across the edge and links with the cartouche on the other side . Any ideas anyone cares to float about this phenomenon ? The blade is not wootz as far as I can tell; I hit it pretty good with ferric chloride diluted to 20% .
