Are there any swords in existence that were positively known to be used by the Prophet Mohamed? Is there a museum somewhere that has artifacts (clothing, cups and bowls, etc.) that were used by Prophet Mohamed?

Yes, there are 8 of the 9 Swords of Prophet Muhammed(PBUH) is in Topkapi Palace, Turkey. The 9th one is in Cairo, Egypt. I opened separate thread "Some items belonging to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)". Take a look. Thanks ...

 

[Kasrkin]

Yes there are items that people claim to having been used by the Prophet (PBUH) i.e. cloths, turbans, etc. But I don’t think all of them are legitimate.

 

[qsaark]

Judging from the highly ornamented pommels, cross-gurads and the scabbards, I am skeptical that they belong to the first four caliphs. They would rather sell such expensive swords and deposited the money in the bait-ul-maal. May be they were decorated much later by the people who were possesing these sword or maybe they were gifts or war-booty (maal ghanimat).

WaAllah alam bil sawab.
