Default saudi executioners sword

First appologies for another morbid question by me. Has anyone got any pics of a real modern saudi executioner's sword (this would be classed as ethnogenic right) ? I don't want pics of executions (seriously). I just want to know what the sword looks like and the steel used for the blade. I guess it would be very high carbon steel that keeps a great edge. I am also interested to know if they are decorated with jewels etc as the Saudi government alledgedly pays thousands of dollars for them. Also are they the same swords used now as used in the past. A picture and details of steel would be very interesting to see. Picture pleaseeee

Thank you
