Are you, guys, saying that they are also newly-made?

some are some are not... Each item needs to be appraised individually.
my above post was talking about the cleaned up complete tulwars one often sees, In the UK some dealers have them put them in new scabbards just to import as reproductions .
Of course in the 60s & 70s whole armoury's were cleared out & sold to the west by Mararajahs , I wonder whether that was officially illegal as well?
