Perhaps I was not clear enough. I said that the National Museum IS your source, that Museum has pieces provided to them from Tariq. Now since he is a fraud (which he isnt) means he also managed to trick your source which means your source is not valid enough.

Posting various Omani swords with blades obviously not made in Oman refutes your honestly ridiculous hypothesis (akin to the ancient astronaut hypothesis, if not more ridiculous). Because here is more evidence IN OMAN that they used foreign blades. Not just European blades. And not just on the straight saif, but also on the saif Yamani. And the kattara. Also, if you can, contact Bayt Alzubair, they have many Omani shamshirs with European and Persian blades there. I couldnt take photos as I dont like breaking the rules.
As for the website I speak about, its yours :-)
