Default London marks stamps

Dear All,

I need some informations about the trade blades with stamps / marks from London.

http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...ghlight=london

I found only this thread, but with no real useful information...

These blades seem popular in Morocco and associated with koummiya and nimcha...

Any idea, dating, references??

Thanks!!

Regards,
Kubur

Thanks Kuber, Id guess so as well.

There no way this one was made in London... its a native copy marking.
