Default Bulgarian Kindjal?

Another novelty in my collection is this Kindjal.

whence this kind? 've seen similar ones that were classified as Bulgarian. there is something really? Another curiosity is the blade steel. do not know exactly whether there is enough visible in the pictures! is welded steel composite, it could be steel refinery? (Steelmaking before industrialization)
Wootz, or a type? I've seen pictures of Wootz, was striped wave (book by Manfred Sachse, the Damascus steel)
am open to any idea.

Thanks for your help.
greeting Chregu
