Ethnographic Arms & Armour - View Single Post - Yataghan and Shamshir Translation request

Rigby · 19th September 2011, 04:20 AM

I would be grateful if anyone can help me with either of these translations.
The first is on an Ottoman Yataghan with watered blade.
The second is hard to see, on an Indo-Persian Shamshir with Lucknow hilt. This second one was plated at some point and also has the umbrella or parasol mark above the cartouche.

thanks in advance for any help in translation.
