Thanks. There is a pic of both sides at the beginning of this post and also a pic of the back of the hilt. Sorry I am not clever enough to combine the two pics in one, so hope that what's there will be OK.
Regards Stu

Hi Lofty,
I am still hoping that DOM will come in again on this. I know he is very busy house shifting, so may be a while. I am sure that the inscription read in total will throw some more light on this piece and I am happy to wait for the total translation to be done at a future time.
Regards Stu

Don't think my efforts are better than Nandos, but perhaps in combination all will be of some help?
If not then, Stu, email me some clearer pics and I'll be happy to combine them etc.

Thanks Gene,
Hope something comes of this as I am curious as to what script says. Why can't they make it simple and use English!!
