Rare unusual stout bronze & iron weapons

The blades appear to be made of iron. In my oppinion they are all very recent producion (last 50 years or so).

Yes the iron blades are imbedded in the cast bronze handles. Most I agree seem as if they could be new. There are a few pieces though that have a complex age patina that would be difficult to simulate in just a few decades. They are puzzling and I just have to ask more questions...

The bronze work appears to me to be recent also.
