Unusual hanger with translation needed

[wolviex]

Dear All!

This is the hanger - so something what is too long to be a knife, and is too short to be a sword. It has some of the hunting hangers features: one side edged, and double edged point, the measurements (61,3 cm/24,1 inches long), S-shaped quillons, althought a little bigger then on any others known and popular hangers. But this one is quite unusual. Why?

First of all it is trying to pretend 17th century weapon, because of handle which is wrapped with leather, and because of pommel which is oval-shaped. But it is much younger, I think 18th century, late or 2nd half. It could be even 19th century, but my feeling tells me, it is 18th century anyway . Quillons are quite strange. Very simple, without any decoration, with bevelling fragment in the middle.

Second unusual feature is the blade which is made of 5 (?) wires forged together. Don't know how to call it in English - false damascene? The work isn't first quality, because, as you can see, there are very black and thick lines visible what means (I think) these are the places where the metal wasn't forged as well as it should be. Beside we've got here a very visible pattern on the blade, uncommon for the others hangers I know.

And 3rd. unusual feature are the cartouches on both sides with oriental inscription. Unfortunately I couldn't recognize what is it, and I'm truly sorry if it is upside down or something. Could anyone translate it, please?.

What do you think about this object. Eastern hanger? I haven't heard about using ones in the East. Import? 18th/19th century fake? Someones eccentricity?

Regards!
