Persian shamshir-translation requested if possible
Here is a Persian shamshir with a rather long gold inscription. The handle is of the Syrian type with either gold or brass twisted wire and gold? rivets. 32 inch blade of the Kara-Taban (patches of black) type wootz, said to be one of the most esteemed type of wootz. Unfortunatly no scabbard. Any translation would be greatly appreciated............Dave.
