Can you describe it; is there a prayer or incantation written on the cloth ?

Rick,

It is just as I bought it. I am going by what the seller told me. I don't really want to unwrap it and I am not in recent close contact with the seller.

However I am also curious. I will email him and see what he can tell us.

I do want to re-stain the blade.
