May i ask if the 2nd one from the right (next to SEAX) -

I'm not totally sure, but i think that is a Berkley Special.

I'm going to guess Foxy Folly. the blade shape is about right, and the lighting in the shot may simply be obscuring the fullers.

Has a Pinuti ever been on a DOTB before? I don't think I've ever seen one.

Yes it has, although it is not called a Pinuti, it is called a Himalayan sword. This was the last one sold, as near as i can figure:

and before that:

I think the confusion over the name came from this post.

Ahh. Looks like that post where Ferguson comments on the resemblance predates my time on BF by a month. Himalayan sword eh?
 
in any case, there were some sweet blades in the one deal of the day three years ago. Hope to see those come through again.
