Where to buy swords in Guwahati city of India?

You can find Antiques and good quality reproduction Tulwars in either Punjab or Rajsthan, don’t really think you will find anything in Assam. In India antiques are typically very cheap, but most will be fake or highly tampered with. I bought antiques from India before, both got them shipped and even put them in my luggage and they have never been stopped by customs, but this might be because I’m Sikh and the customs allow Antiques to be shipped out of India as ceremonial or religious objects.

Thank you gentleman for all your answers. Gathering from your answers, I feel that chances of me getting a nice authentic tulwar from this travel is quite low; so I decided to alter my original question:

Is it possible to find a nice newly made(since taking antiques out of the country is illegal) Kachin Dao in Guwahati city? Where would be the ideal place to buy such blade in that area? I assume finding a Naga Dao, or Kachin Dao will be easier in the region than finding a replica talwar; am I wrong?

Hi Sancar,its illegal to buy edged weapons more than a certain length as per Indian law anywhere in India,also difficult to even take them out of India even if its a replica
In Assam, Guwahati is one of the big citys in north east of india.Am sure you will find a good variety of weapons from Assam,Nagaland,Manipur and Arunachal Pradesh and the odd Nepalese weapons which are made in Benares,Uttar Pradesh state,Please inquire with the locals for the Antique shops and that's the best place to find things you are wanting.Rajasthan is the heart of reproductions of Indo-Persian weapons ,made so well that they end up in top auction houses in Europe and USA,as other members have suggested its best to buy a Tulwar outside India which would be cheaper and more authentic
