Here is a photo for one that belongs to Alex with a Caucasian blade? the other photo is of a one I owned in the past, its more recent, lesser quality design but good quality silver. The blade is slim compared to the older ones even the older local ones.

Right, that's about what I expected to see. The recent ones are perhaps sheet steel?
