Still waiting to hear what context this WOOO is from, why does it have to be European? If we knew what type of weapon this was on it might lead to more serious responses, otherwise it still just sounds funny.

European mameluke-type sword with brass pistol-type handle, non-fullered blade marked WOOO ( W.O.O.O.?)
It's active, and I cannot show pics.

Whoops, just saw the amended rules about pics, they are gone now...whoops

It is cheap enough for a gamble if nothing is learnt here.

I don't think that the mark is WOOO. To me the second and third characters look a little flat on the left side, and not perfectly. The third one might be an R or a B, and the second might be an R or a B or a D. So, the mark could be WRRO, WBBO, WBRO, etc., rather than WOOO.
