Actually, it is not that esoteric at all. There is a recent book in Russian called "Холодное оружие Османской империи и Албании" by Branko Bogdanovich which deals with this topic. Forum rules would not allow posting a link to the publisher, but if you simply copy and paste the title in Google, you should be able to find the web site easily.
The same publisher has a series of books on edged weapons military patterns for all Balkan countries, but these are topics that fall outside of my interests and the scope of this forum.
