on the first pic (from right to left) the date seem's to be 1315 more than 1215, anyway the hegire 1 is 622, either
1315 + 622 = 1937
1215 + 622 = 1837
but 1799 ??
the first group of letters could (?) be "Ali", the (?) because it's arabic alphabet letters, but without clear meaning,
the second group is not letters, just signs without arabic relation

on the second pic, all signs are not arabic letters , even if their design seems to be oriental
anyway, this yataghan is really wonderfull
