Hopefully Zifir or someone else will be able to help with the inscriptions from my previous two posts. In the meantime, I am going to add another yataghan with an inscription that needs translation t the archive in this thread.

Thank you,
Teodor

Hi Teodor
unfortunately, it's only Zifir who is able to translate the Turkish "ancient"
Zifir is a professor in university,
they are may be in examinations period ?
also be patient and keep fingers crossed

Thank you for responding Dom,
I am grateful for all the help that Zifir and the other translators, like your spouse, have provided in this forum. These inscriptions have remained on the blades for centuries and will be there for many more years, so there is no particular hurry. I am sure that when Zifi comes by the forum, he will look at them. In the meantime, I am simply adding further examples to this thread as they come up.

Here are three photos of inscriptions and a maker's mark on yataghan blades. I received them from a friend in Bulgaria with a plea for translation. I apologize for not having photos of the entire yataghans: I am trying to obtain those shots. However, in light of contributing so many yataghans to this forum, I hope that I may be granted an exception in this case from our gracious translators.

As always, all help in translating these inscriptions and marks is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Teodor

I received pistures of the whole items and it turns out only one of them is a yataghan, the others are small knives, which I believe are modern replicas from India. Still, I would appreciate a translation just to know if these knives actually copy old inscriptions, or if their creators simply apply some jibberish.

I do not believe the Sumatran pedang has an inscription, but I am including it just in case, since it came with the rest of the pictures.

Thank you,
Teodor
