The blade is pattern welded mechanical damascus and relatively sure not new.

New Indian damascus steel have a birds eye -pattern (in german language "small roses") in most cases.

A skillful made polishing and etching would bring back its original beauty.

Hi Roland_M,
this is very good news and I appreciate the high knowledge of the members of this forum very much. As soon as I have the dagger in hands I'll make better fotos to show them here.
Best regards
