Hi Battara,

It is crudly hand engraved cursive script.

Well, that was generally the case with the Spanish cutlers. It may well be that that navaja was custom made for a Boer who was in Spain at the time. I suppose that we'll never know - Most intiguing.

Usually I'm not much into European, but this puppy caught my eye years ago (for dirt) and have enjoyed it's uniqueness.
Look after it and enjoy - It is a fascinating and very unusual piece.

Cheers
Chris
