Warusseppäin kilta (translates to something like Armourers Guild) is a finnish re-enactment society with a strong bias to making arms and armour as well as to historical fencing. According to their website they also make and sell stuff. Custom. There are various makers and so the quality is of variable nature, but over the years their quality has definitely improved. As there are some very nice (already sold) repros on their website, I thought it might be a good idea to post their website. Too bad it's in finnish, but you can see the price range in euros from their pages.

The bottom row of links
tikarit | väkipuukot | miekat | keihäät ja hilparit | jouset ja nuolet | haarniskat | helat ja korut
translates to
daggers | knives | swords | spears and halberds | bows and arrows | armour | fittings and jewellery
You can contact them by writing to the following address: killanvanhin@warussepat.fi I suspect english is okay.
Here are my favorite examples of what they can do:
