Thank you guys!
I thought they do not look Caucasian, but this was the exact description from one of the famous auctions. Another prove that even the major auction houses make mistakes:-) |

A hypothetical question: MAY these types of knives have wootz blades?
Technically speaking: 19th century + Bosnian/Balkan/Ottoman region = good possibility of wootz blade being forged on a few of these knives. Has anyone seen a similar knife to what Lew showed above with the wootz blade? |
