As stated, the ones in the period photos look to be more substantially made. With the welds being so obvious, and not very well dressed, I'm thinking the ones shown here, are either ceremonial, or purely older tourista examples. None the less, very attractive weapons.

I wonder if those dervish poleaxes are specific to a certain tasavvufi order in Iran?
