				 |  Excellent kukri with, dare I say, a wootz blade 
			
			This is the first example of a kukri I have ever run across that sports a wootz blade.  Has anyone else found an example?  Obviously Indian made with the hilt of elephant ivory, nice gold koftgari and a wootz blade.  Seems fairly early to me, possibly late 18th to early 19th century.  Thoughts?
