Arabic translation needed

[khalsa1313]

I am told this is Arabic and not Persian.

BTW- 18c. Indian Sossun Patta :D

[S.Al-Anizi]

I disagree, this seems to be persian, not arabic, although I could read:

"Sayid Nadir Shah" and the word "Iran" in the middle of the inscription.

[Zifir]

I could read the word before 'Iran' as 'Padishah.'

[khalsa1313]

So would it be safe to assume thus far we have "Sayid Nadir Shah Padshah Iran"?

Im not too sure of Nadir though.

The hilt is nothing spectacular, but the blade is a tottaly different story, superb wootz.! ENJOY :D

[Jens Nordlunde]

Thank you very much. I would not say so about the hilt, dream back to when it was made, is must have been a very nice hilt. True, the blade really is very nice, congratulations. Do you know from where it origins?

Unfortunately I don't have much of history on this piece. I bought it from a fellow living in Texas who had absolutely no clue what this was.
