Going to war meant Dressing For the Ball...To illustrate this I apply a few artistic impressions of the famous Maharajah Ranjit Singh.

The helmet, arm guard and shield are certainly Persian, they look to be Qajar, 19th century, the first axe shown in your original post may be Indian, the midde one looks to be Persian and the axe with the small brass/bronze head I am not sure about. The weapon on the bottom appears to be an Indian zaghnal.

Ibrahiim, this is a very interesting combination weapon, it is the only example I have seen, it appears to be quite old as well, 21.75 in / 55.24cm. length.
