Khyber Knife

[sabertasche]

Hi all, it's been ages since I posted anything. Work, family and a feeling of inferiority in knowledge has kept me from posting as I only seem to ask, not give from the more academic collectors in the Forum. My apologies again for asking, I aspire to be more active in the future and hopefully add to the wealth of knowledge within it.

I'm hoping someone can read the Arabic inscription. After looking at it for a few years I think it says : Made by ....

The thoughts of the Forum are most welcome.
