Are simple/plain kard daggers rare?

Also these three above examples have very long blades for kards, ranging from 12 to 14 inches.

Kard in Farsi is jusr “knife”. They can be of any length.
“Tribalism” is determined by their decorations.

Although their exact region of origin still seems to be undecided, this style seems to be attributed to the Turkmen.
