this one is made in east turkmenistan, normaly there arabic script is used but also there is a sizeable amount of chinese molsems who adopt the centralasian costume and customs to a degree so they carry the ughir knife as well
there are made in "factories" with make hand workers,, and have been made like this for several 100 years
