With the help of a friend, the text was read .Year 1218 (Circa 1803). Made by Hajji (pilgrim) Nouh, owner Halil Ağa.
Ağa is a military rank which has no equvelance in today's miltary and it is between a captain and a major. Ağa usullay cammanded 1000 jennissaries. The rest are the names of the Seven Sleepers of Ephesus ![]() |

Additional:
Aga or Agha was also a honorific title or name given to respected men, who were not to be addressed with Beg / Bey or Effendi for one reason or another in the Ottoman Empire. So not always a reference to a military rank or position of the owner |

Nice yataghan, why do you mean that there are other signa that it belonged to janissari? There are no janissari seals on blade, they had seals like markings of regiment, that vere struck on blades, this doesent have that.
That ivory? Like decoration on ear is a later ad on as i can see. |

In the inscriptions, along with the name of the master, the name of the owner is always written, made in the same technique as the rest of the inscriptions, and the decoration of the blade; this indicates that the weapon was made to order. Regards, Yuri. |

FYI: most were not of "Turkish"origin but actually children from occupied (mostly Balkan) countries. interesting to read : https://www.google.nl/books/edition/...0AEACAAJ?hl=nl http://www.bev.ba/MOMARAFO/ET/krater...sokolovic.html https://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Janissary they also were a partial reason for the pan-slavic thoughts and uprising in that region: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Serbian_Uprising |

[QUOTE=gp;289972]correction: Ottoman Janissars.
You are absolutely right - Ottoman Janissaries. I know very well how and from whom the Janissary corps was formed, I have enough knowledge and books on this topic. At the beginning of the reign of Sultan Murad I (1959-1389), a new army was formed, which was called the Janissaries. The question was different, that the yataghan was a non-combatant personal weapon, made to order. Therefore, there could be no regimental markings. Regards, Yuri. |
