I have a kinjal with some script on it,I posted a picture of the script on a translator forum and this is what the translation said(according to the translator)

"The sentence says: "la fata ella Ali (the first line), la sayf ella dhol-feqar".
Its mean is: "No boy except 'Ali', no sword except 'dhol-feqar'".
If you want explanation of it, here it is:

'Ali' is the name of 'Al-Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (Karraml-lahu wajhahw)'.
He is the cousin of the Prophet Muhammad (3alayhis-sallam).

'dhol-feqar' is the name of Imam Ali's sword.

This sentence is said by Shi'a Muslims. "

I thought it was interesting (funny thing I just found out about an hour ago after months of searching)

Here is the Kinjal with the script
