Hi "Nirghosa"
I had already asked this question ... to myself
because inside of 2 scabbards, the wooden slices, which are spoiled, and vanished,
thus, the blades are shaky and moving, inside these scabbards

I estimated that it was "lime tree", which should do the trick
easy to carve and lightweight

but, till now, I didn't try,
it's for that, I was keeping silence
I was awaiting some comments from our friends

sorry to don't be more usefully

all the best
