Good example, its 19th century. The blade is from the Solingen maker Peter Kull and a pattern from the mid 19th century.

Can't help on the inscription but usually these are verses from the Koran.

This a nice example of a typical Solingen export blade, simple but well made that were sent in the thousands to Africa.
