Ariel is right - it looks Ottoman and the hilt looks like a brown agate with gold inlay.

you are a lucky guy, because ... I was very interested ...  two reasons made that I didn't bid - no scabbard - the mean reason, in fact, I was sure (?) to have seen, a similar some where else, and I dunno why, I got the feeling (wrong at the evidence) that's was a duplicate, and for your luck, I left it  ... for a very cheap price, really a present  unfortunately, as far as it's not Arabic writing impossibility to translate what's on the blade  presumably, should be Ottoman language, has to be confirmed sincere congratulations à + Dom |

It could be either Turkish or Persian in Arabic script. Not uncommon.
