A third one, with no gold remaining in the inlay. The inscription on the back of the blade is almost obliterated - I am told 'the last word is 'Muhammad' but nothing else can be satisfactorily read; the final letters before Muhammad are h.y.t'.
On the scabbard Inilah alamat sarung sikin (This is the scabbard of the sikin of) Teungku Kecik b.n.w.h.w (Benuhu?) l.w.p?.y.n?.y [i.e. name?] k.m.w .... nenggeri Kabat[?]. One day I shall try to get proper photos of the inscriptions, to see if a bit more can be deciphered. |
