Default Presentation kukri / African Yoruba dagger ivory hilt / quality ?

Hello,

I would like to buy this lot:

-a representation kukri, length 40cm / 15,7 inches

-a dagger or a primitive money dagger ( with ivory hilt ?)
length 50cm.

The seller tell me they are really old piece:

18th century for the african dagger,
bronze or iron blade, Yoruba ethnie, ivory hilt.

18-19th century for the presentation kukri.
I wonder if the scabbard is covered of silver sheat ?
Seems a kind of metal alloy so is it all just fake ?...

What do you think ? Age ?
Tourist stuff ?

Kind regards
