Default Interesting Golok for translation

An interesting Golok, the poor finish on the blade in stark contrast to the amount of time they spent adding the long inscription on both sides.
The date puzzled me initially as it looked like a mix of arabic and western numerals, but a closer look seems to show that it's 1365 Hegira, which would be 1945 gregorian.
If someone could please have a look at the rest of the inscription. It's clearly done with some care.

Thanks
Gene
