There is a big difference between a "forgery" which implies an attempt to decieve and a restoration, no matter what the level of workmanship. As for yatagan, many original ones were not very elegant, some I have seen could be called crude when compaired to the ones made for wealthy individuals. There was a wide gap between the plain and elaborate examples.
