The sword in your first image was discussed here when it was on auction. Sadly the throwing knives and the sword are a bit suspect. This style of kaskara hilt appears to be one made in Egypt. The second image you posted with the same style is noted to be collected in Egypt from the AMNH. http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showthread.php?t=14711
