Default Sabre with unknown origins

Acquired by a friend of mine, we can't decide where it comes from, or it's age. Any comments appreciated, especially if anyone can read the Kufic style calligraphy on the blade. We suspect from the clipped point it comes from the southern Russian (Cossack?) areas near Turkey that were influenced by the Turks and Islamic weaponry. Thanks for any comments.
