I found some of the blades I photographed in Dubai. Here they are. Almost all have "refurb" work done on them. some of it is obvious, others I would only know because the dealer let me into his world and told me. I'll throw in a few "Bablonian" fake statues as well. I also saw some fantastic authentic (and forged) coins. These guys are good. Better than we often realize.
