Romanian Peasant knives

Look though my books I came across { The studio, Peasant Art In Roumania, George Oprescu, 1929 The Studio LTD 44 Leicester Square London.

Peasant is rather old fashioned I think Folk art is more Modern and the spelling of the country has also changed. I thought it a good idea to add the one photo of blades to this site. There are so many similarities to other nations knives far from Romania. Too me the most distinctive element is the scabbards . What do others see as similarities? Puuko knives?
