Hi
I confirm that on field, it's only low grade knifes are offering for trade
even if some blacksmith try to continue the tradition,
I was very disappointed by the knifes quality,
and the scabbards are made with an horrible plastic
not very glorious all that, unfortunately ...

some more pic's about these 2 Uzbeki Pichok,
and also for the blacksmith and his workshop at "Bukhara"
