alright, i think i finally learnd how to control the pattern of wootz blade. the yatagan and kilij is only blade with no guard and handle. the kilij is designed to have 14 ladder and 14 roses. while the yatagan is 14 | ladders and 14\ ladders. the photos are taken from the yatagan blade.
to get the ladder you need grind the groove when the blade is very close to its finally shape. if you cut the groove too early, the ladder will be stretched too wide in the later forging. and won't remain clear and organize enough to see.
