Yes you're right about that Detlef, the plain ones are surprisingly heavy unlike the more decorative ones.
But as suggested, amongst them there are also with nice patina, and nicely made grips, just not made for real warfare...

I've seen wooden ones with some good patina, but also never made for war..
