the 2nd inscription reads صاحب سيد سلمان 1311 which means: owner Sayed Salman Date 1311 hijri which makes it a 19th century piece? think the 3 could be 2 but i'd leave it to someone with better eyes

the name of the blacksmith was might be Persian,
the second word is "brardroumi" and there is a sign illegible in Arabic

for the digit 2 and 3, me too, at beginning I was confused,
but almost of time we found the character is like in printing,
not in form writing
