It is, as you said, "kinzhal-esque", but seems to have some age. Definitely not Caucasian. There are even no scabbard elements: either the dagger was intended to be tucked under the belt or under the boot top. Pretty village quality of execution.
My best guess it is somewhere from the boondocks of the Ottoman Empire, such as Bulgaria, Romania, poor areas of the Balkans....
