Horn Handled Silver Mounted Yataghan HELP!!

Zifir, many thanks for the translation it makes the sword a much more personal item and not just any blade. I am aware that there is sometimes a date on Yataghans if you are not able to see the necessary part of the blade in my photographs I will re-photograph if necessary, in saying that I have checked and can find no other calligraphy other than that shown. Another member thought that the date was on the blade but could not quite make it out. If there is no date can you hazard a guess as to when and where the sword was made.
Regards,
Norman.
