Erlikhan,
I think swords can be a very delicate subject in some Arabic countries which I understand is due to ancient Ottoman laws (?), so you probably know something about that already. I think you should definitely find out exactly what applies before doing anything. Dealing with the UAE authorities should be a good first port of call. Contact the UAE authorities online and ask them in the English language for advice.
Bakarat antiques shop in Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi is quite impressive.
