Hi ariel,
do you have better picture of the script part?
The second line start with ('amal-i) but i cannot read the rest.

It is incredibly difficult to photograph due to uneven surface, semi-obliterated and very faint inlay lines etc.
The best I could do was to copy it faithfully.Please give it a try.

Sorry, I cannot make anything out of it. Now I am even doubtful about the 'amal part. But to make things more complicated (or easier) the date on the blade seems to me 1367 (1947-48).
