It does appear you have some problems with the words; Hello & Thanks. At second thoughts I have a problem with your sword mark and it does not appear to be Dutch.The grip looks to long and the guard has a circular motive in the middle, instead of a rectangle motive with rounded corners. To compare your sword mark;

and the Dutch swords past & present and Belgium included;

Your spoon;
I believe, I see two other small marks, under the sword mark, on the flower stalk with the rose button? Could we see a close up of the marks? Thanks.
