The diagrams at the top of the article and the reconstruction are taken out of a Russian book Siberian Warriors and Weapons which unfortunately I do not understand but it was printed in 2003 and the images are quite good. Included a closeup of the knife the warrior depicted in the top image of Siberian Times page is holding. :-)
