Thoughts on this?

Hi this ended on ebay

I assume it is modern (correct me please I am only guessing). Can anyone tell me whether the script on the blade is indeed script or just general squiggling.
Thanks
David

The whole construct is totally modern, nicely made though

.
The figure depicts Khmer Yantra and the script (thanks to poor etching, the alphabets are in low resolution and difficult to be identified

) 's likely to be a blessing, writen with Khmer fonts.
Note: blade etching technique is very popular for modern Dahb.
