I even see a weapon I have never seen before!!!!! The one with the long handle and short blade and square tip...it appears by the image discription below to be listed as the Sithaba(hu?) Sword. When I look up Sithabahu all I can find is a reference to Sri Lanka: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinhabahu
It looks like an exotic Burmese made Naga Dao/chopper, the long handled types often seen with goat hair but in a very refined manner.
