It would indeed be a sad thing to see the decline or ending of a time honoured craft. We actually saw one of the very new Takoubas sell for a draw dropping £200 at a large antique market. It's nice in a way that people will pay that sort of money but as you say, most likely because the buyer considered the sword to be ancient.
