Umm I think he may have something to say if I try to take it appart to see the shape of the tang. From what can be seen I would say square. But could be round, really hard to tell, any further into the body of the hilt.
Are we confirming that the writing is Arabic then?
Seems to still be a mystery.
Cheers all
