Another Choora for consideration

I've taken a couple more pictures of the blade. Unfortunately I cannot polish it out as the blade already has etched decoration which I would damage. See what you think of the new photos, but I don't think the blade is wootz.

Yep, most likely not wootz since normally wootz blades were not decorated. under these circumstances it is definitely not worth polishing the blade as it will loose any traces of original decoration.

Sorry!

Wootz or not, it is a very nice Choora!
