The Ottomans used different scripts, plus if your inscription is just a simple religious Arabic text then don't expect something "special"...

Thank you for the answer. Earlier I had two such kindjals but I sold them. The text is in Ottoman Turkish.

Today I got two interesting kindjals.It seems to me that the first one is made of a piece broken yatagan The handle, however, is ivory The second is also interesting.I still have no idea what exactly they are.I would be grateful for your opinion.

Kindjals?!

In my oppinion these two knives are anything but kindjals!

I think you should have opened a new thread for these two knives, as they are not related to the original topic in any way.

You are right about the first one being a remounted tip of a broken Yatagan blade.

I don't know about the second but it appears to be very crude and poor workmanship.
