Default modern targe

I was told by the vendor (selling his deceased father's collection: what a dispiriting task) that this was made in the 1960s as an exact reproduction by someone who specialised in the activity.
I was never given the name and wondered if anyone could verify this detail and perhaps elucidate further.
Included was this custom made dirk (with an 11inch blade) commissioned by a member of the McCulloch clan in the early 1900s but I don't think the targe is that old.
