There are quite a few contemporary pieces floating around, especially with the more flamboyant hilts. Some with new but artificially aged/corroded pamor blades, too.

Of course, very cheap workhorses can also be bought at local markets since the majority are agricultural tools. These do come with a hardened edge and are great users.

The usual recommendations apply if you seek genuine vintage or antique goloks...
