Sorry fellows I did not make myself clear. 
 
Is it the two sides near the hilt that make up  -  Al-Khartoum Sanat 1298?? 
 
The central panels and the rest of the thuluth are I think rather too stylised to make sense unless you are a specialist scholar. Though I do wonder if it is just decoration based on script, playing on the observers lack of literacy, to appear learned and carry authority.
