Default Shamshir help needed Blade cartouche translation
Just a general 'please help with any info' really.
I think its Turkish, can't translate the blade inscription, wonder if (as many I've seen) the asymetric crossguard tine is deliberate or if one is routinely removed. Date guesses?

Thanks for looking.
Gene
