Re: swords in post #1 - Another tit-bit: 
 
Look at the amount of rings on the hilts, shape of the pommels, etc. 2 single 19thc Tonkin sabres, not made as a pair. (lower one looks to be missing its flat guard disc & is fullered & blade is decorated). 
 
They are also too long at 1 metre (40in.) for two handed Thai style.
