I figure that it will take a highly skilled eye to discern what those faded engravings represent.

A good trick with faded engravings is to open the photo in paint or a similar program and highlight the visible engravings with red or a similar contrasting colour. Best done by the original poster as he can refer back to the actual sword when trying to differentiate between engraving and scratches. once you have the surviving marks easily visible it's amazing how the whole picture starts to show.
