Jacques, welcome to the Forum,
This is an outstanding blade, forged of wootz (true Damascus steel) and nicely gold-inlaid. It is Indo-Persian, 18 or 19 Century, mounted with European (ivory) hilt and crossguard. There are members here who will help with translation, but I just wanted to comment on the blade - truly nice!!! It is very rare nowadays to find such a nice blade with that many gold inscriptions in such good condition. Congratulations on owning it. |
