Islamic ? I know my picture taking skills suck, but here are some of this Wilkinson. It is as received, I did not clean or polish it. Any ideas as to who, what when & where ? What it says ? It has writing on a small portion of one side of blade, on most of the other side.

Well, it's post-1952, when Elizabeth ascended the throne of England. Should be for an artillery officer, I think, based upon the hilt pattern. It'd be nice to have the script read, but you'll need clear photos and blade etchings are pretty tough to represent well in a photo. Do you have the scabbard?

I do have the scabbard, and 3 other swords like it but with different markings.
