another interesting note, is that haider ali incorporated his name into the baduh, forming his own talismatic square. seemed to have work, given his success in the south!

It seems, according to Die Orientalische Sammlung Henri Moser, Charlottenfels, Bern, 1955, Switzerland. Page 102 #57 that the sword has a Buduh, but no numbers and no letters. The blade is signed by Assad ‘Ullah.
On page 101 the Bduh (as it is spelled) is explained. It seemed to have been used on letters also, under the address, to ensure the safe arrival of the letter.

The thread has however come a bit off track - can anyone translate the chartouche?
