I just picked up this piece in Morocco. I was told that it is 19th century and is from Iran. The writing goes along this line (God besiege your protection and we ask you fend against bad intentions the protector the forgiver you almighty) it is from the koran if anyone can give me a better translation would be thankful. there are seven variations in the blade think they represent the steps to heaven but again not sure. What are your thoughts and opinions on this blade. And thanks in advance for all the help given on this thread.
