hello.I hope all members have been very well and happy since the last time i had chance to log into the forum,which has been quiet long time.

May I please learn your opinion about the attached pictures? Could any of these rapiers have possibility to be original 300-400 years old or so?(The first picture especially)
According to me impossible because i cant feel even a least degree of material aging expected to occur on almost half a thousand years aged swords even if they have been kept very carefully since the day of their production. But a good internet buyer of me insists they are original, and requests me to find rapiers like them for him.

regards
