Are these Dao Vietnamese or Chinese

This interesting group of Dao sold a while back, but I’ve never seen such thin guards before like on the last two, Chinese Dao I have seen have thick chunky disk guards. Are these Vietnamese perhaps, or Chinese village made pieces?

Not to mention the oddly crude blade on the last example, perhaps poorly forged too?
