Here is a picture of my Himalayan-Imports UBE (Uncle Bills Especial).
The blade is forged by the Royal Kami Bura from a Mercedes truck or bus leaf spring and the blade is 1/2" thick at the spine. This one is unusual because it has an exposed full tang instead of a stick tang. The handle is water buffalo with brass fittings.
Hope you like the picture.

The sheath is also water buffalo with the 100yr. old frog(that what they call it). The Chacma(spelling?) and Karda are both handled with buffalo horn and also made from the Mercedes leaf spring.
