I dont know much about the bichaq but the numbers seem to be arabic.
1224(?) if this is correct it should be AD 1809.
From what I can see from your pictures, the markings seem at be copies of European marks, giving the blades a 'quality' stamp so to say.
When you photograph, please try to do so outside, it is best if it is clouded, as the light will be better. Using electric light gives too many shadows.
Please show the whole sword, then the details, the next sword and the details. This way it is far easier to see which details belong to which sword, and show the sword upwards or we will have to scroll all the time to read the text.
