In the second photo, the writing is in Turkish, but I could understand from the second line the following inscription: عمل عثمان صاحب علي Translation: Made by Othman, the owner is Ali. Also, the date is 1231 AH...which corresponds to 1815 C.E. Hope this helps! Best regards, Ahmed Helal Hussein |

Turkish part of the inscription - though I am not sure about the last word. And my translation to English is as close as possible to Turkish meaning.

The inscription reads: عمل محمود صاحب حسن أغا سنة 1280 Translation: "Made by Mahmoud [for the] owner [who] is Hassan Agha in the year 1280 AH [which corresponds to 1862 or 1863 CE]". Note: All other inscriptions are not in Arabic, and therefore are NOT Qur'anic. Hope this helps! Best regards, Ahmed Helal Hussein |

Again the Turkish parts. By the way Teodor, these inscriptions are very interesting, I have not seen similar ones until now. The second one is little bit heavy metallish though

Thank you Zifir, glad to have finally posted an unusual inscription. Very threatening and bloodthirsty indeed.

I just acquired this yataghan. Not much in the way of inscriptions, but would still really appreciate a translation, if possible.
Thank you in advance, Teodor |
