Default Kilij - Pala inscription for transalation

I've got this kilij recently, nothing special, but has some kind of inscription in a star on its blade.

Please help to translate it.

Thanks!

this is a pretty "pala" `
the star is in fact the seal of Solomon, considered here as a lucky charm
translation has been done, nothing to add

excepted to all my Bro. : Eïd Mubarak

Eid mobarak thanks Bro

Yep, though I see the seal of Solomon on Turkish and Moroccan stuff alot more than say Hijazi or Shamy items. Even prior to Ibn AbdulWahab.
