I think the blade are press forged (if thats the correct word) where the blade is press cut from a sheet, ground and fitted to the guard.

Press forging isn't the issue. Albion armoury uses press cutting + CNC milling for their swords but they are leaps and bounds better than these 500€ slabs that are barely better than mall ninja wallhangers.
