You are very welcome :-).
Yes you are right, the Indian weapons are the most important to discuss :-).
From the drawing in Egerton it is hard to say if it is a wooden or a steel 'sword'. However, had it been a wooden one, I feel sure that he would have mentioned it - as he speaks about weapons - and not training weapons.
The second picture you show is a strange one. Egerton calls it a sword, but it seems to have a round 'blade' - more like a kind of maze.
I will have a look what I can find in my books.
