		I am hoping one of our Arabic speakers will be kind enough to translate the inscription on the rear of the chape of this kindjal. 
	Thanks in advance!  | 
		
 at least the date 
	1228/1813 :)  | 
		
 It reads, 
	Work of Rajab 12?8 Year Owner Harsin Ibn Aslan Bek The third digit does not appear to be a 2. It is likelier a reversed 6, giving a date of 1268 (1851/52,) which is more consistent with the form and decoration than an early 19th century date. Just above the inscription is a family mark or tamga.  | 
		
 Thanks so much guys....very helpful!
