Hi Stephen,

I believe it is the Kishanghar armoury mark from Rajasthan. Check out this thread.

Hi Stephen,
Jeff gave you the answer. The mark on your tulwar is medium deep, although not all the letters are shown.

Hi Jeff,
Nice to see that you responded so quickly .

Jens

Hi Jens,

It is so rare that i can actually add anything to a thread, I have to be quick before somebody else posts your information.

All the Best
Jeff

...many thanks for your replies...

...here's another marking - not etched this time - on a large tulwar (40")

An armoury marking or something else?

Stephen,
I think the inscription should be turned, but I am not sure, and I can't read it, although the sign in the middle of the top line looks like number '4'.
