My sister in law says the horizontal text is sanskrit, the second half means 'a hundred times'. I'll ask my father in law tomorrow if he can translate the first part. Interesting challenge!

It's a Wootz Katana - the steel is folded 100 times to make it so supermagic that it can cut through a lightsaber!

Or perhaps not.

Given where it is, I'm going to guess at some form of good luck/protection message.

Guys don't worry I'll translate this while I'm dressed as a tiger waiting for someone.
The sentence reads "it's a queen letter box, my nan kills them for a living."

No no, you've made a slight error. It's "You'll wish I was a Quarterstaff". Common mistranslation.
