Post #3,
similarly some of the names of seven sleepers: Yemliha, Meksalina, Mislina, Mernuş, Debernuş but the rest are missing. I am not very sure about the makers name, and I could not the second inscription. |

Many thanks for the translations Zifir!
I think I pretty much covered all of the inscriptions but I will check and upload anything missing. Just trying my hand at etching using 1:3 ferric chloride:water solution. I shouldn't have any problem with the silver inlay should I? |

 Ottoman Turks probably learned them through Arab/Islamic sources.

According to the seller this yataghan is 113 cm long. Unfortunately not mine so I can't confirm it.
