Very nice swords

I wonder if it is a good thing to post them separately or it would have been better to post all together to get more comments...

I have absolutely no knowledge of this kind of swords but at the ricasso I see a lion with a crown on top and a sword in its clutch. I think that this is the coat of arms of Persia?
