Differences on Indian weapons

Have a look at these weapons. The axe and the bhuj are decorated in the same way, and are from Kutch. I have never seen a bhuj from this area with another scabbard than the one shown, gild metal with a floral design in relief. The last bhuj is quite different as the haft is of brass decorated in floral design in relief, with a scabbard in velvet, with two mounts of cobber decorated in floral motifs in relief. This bhuj comes from somewhere else in the area.
