Tibetan sword: real?????

I reckon if you bid $2000 on one of those at least half fake rusty bits of junk sword they will be happy to let you have it!

There multiple thousand dollar pieces of Antique Tibetan woodwork, I can see are brand new, like within last few months. {I used to work as a cabinet maker.} So perhaps Ariel is right.

If even the blades are fake, its the realist fake pitting Ive ever seen. Or is it? I guess the best fakes are never recognised as such.

Thats a sobering thought.
