Zifir,
You said that with a clear picture you might be able to translate the inscription on this Yataghan. Here are better photos (I hope).
Thanks a lot.
Gadi.

Nice piece. old repair on the handle and very nice silverwork on scabbard. Not my style, but still nice.

Repair, schmepear...
It is dated 1219 =1804. We should all look that good at 205 :-)

Sorry Hatumesh,
I have been looking at the inscription for some time, I could not even make a single word out of it. I saw one or two similar yatağans with the same type of engraved inscriptions, I could not read them either.

I believe that this is a composite piece (not old repairs). It has old a new parts. I have seen similar coming from Bulgaria last years but it can be made anywhere there are a lot pieces from old yataghans

your deception it's not complet

because, what "ariel" though to be a date, in fact it's
just an illegible writting, my translater is FORMAL

I got a strong argumentation with her about that subject,
and she refuse to modify her judgement
I was sharing "areil" point of view ...

conclusion;
- it's not writting in Turkish
- it's not writting in Arabic

it's what ?? Farsi ?? ... Urdu ?

(joke)
