Turkish translation help needed

Dear Friends!

This is next time I need your help in translating Oriental inscription. This one I believed is Turkish. Blade is probably Turkish (maybe Persian), and was given to Stanislaw Chomentowski, great envoy to Ottoman Empire in years 1712-14.
The inscrption shown belowed should contain the name of the maker, the date and religious motto. The date was translated many years ago as 1112 y. of hegira (1734 year), so it doesn't exactly fit the date of the Chomentowski lagation. So I need to confirm it, in which I hope, you can help me. Because the lower cartouche is partly hidden behind the quillons, I put (more or less precise) picture of it as well.

And a question? On the blade, along the edge, are golden inscriptions. Well, the questions is are these real letters, or just some (caballistic?) signs, as we can see half moon as well.

Thank you in advance!
