I cannot say anything about the markings on your khanda.
However, yours appears to be a very old one and I wouldn't be surprised if it has a wootz blade.
The examples in the book are much more recent, late 19th-early 20th century, made almost exclusively for the European market. Only the first one on the left may be older.
