Huge sword - Persia or Caucasus

I have received a few replies. They all agree the language on the sides is armenian. The language in the fuller is not, probably persian (??).

The problem is that it is some obscure version of armenian, a few characters are not typical for armenian writing. They are puzzled on where it was made - they basically cited the same information on persian-armenian relationships I posted above, does not make our job any easier. They gave me a few adresses of armenians who might be capable to work with the signature, but the closest one to you is in Venice...

They are asking is it is known how the kindjal ended up in Poland ?
