Yes, all three are naval swords. The French one is an Eickhorn export, I can't see the maker on the Italian one, and an Imperial German Naval Officer by WK&C. It looks like the German one has ivory grips but it is missing the wire wrap.

So they are original? Exist reproductions of such swords?

There are reproductions of these swords, particularly the German Navy sword. Having said that they look original to me from what can be seen in the photographs.
Perhaps someone else may chime in.
