Oh dear
These look purely decorative to me and seem to have been made out of sheet metal. There appears to be some stable corrosion remaining in some places, while other places look as though they have been heavily abraded and perhaps polished. Given the thinness of the metal guards, I'm surprised that none of them show any dings from use or bumping about if they are indeed old. Not weapons I would stake my life on.
These have enough negative features that would certainly dissuade me from bidding on them. I hope none of our fellow forumites bought them at that price.
Ian.
