Default Kindjal: need help with dating

Smallish and fully original kindjal with old blade: obvious narrowing of the blade due to repeat sharpening.
The inscription is confusing (to me) and I need help.
The first two numbers are 11: the horizontal line on top is just a scratch and reading the date as 16.. would not make sense. After that is 4, squiggles, and some more numbers(?).
Anybody to the rescue?
