No they wont. Atleast not the Omanis I met in Muscat and Nizwa. I have mentioned your whole hypothesis and they find it quite hilarious actually. And all the swords they have shown as private collection (not offered for sale) had European and wootz, stiff blades. Some who participate in this forum have seen the photographs I have taken there, but the collectors themselves had me promise not to share it publicly :-)
