A small update for those interested, while hunting around the forum for pictures not yet in my collection I stumbled upon this old but
pertinent thread featuring a typical Kard from Turkestan with the same makers' names inscribed on the scabbard. Here they are written without any fancy flourishes so even I can easily read the second one as خضری or Khezri so Kwiatek was right on the money.
