Well this job has a great benefit it is very easy to get a head.
A former Saudi citizen told me once that they usually use swords and the families of the condemned will pay money for their family member to be one of the first on the block.you see they do not sharpen the blades after each "removal" and it only cuts in one clean blow the first head or so after that it takes a few swings.I know a few guys that where stationed in Saudi that went watch a beheading they regretted it their stories confirm the dullness of the blades for last for few on the block so to speak as they normally make them squat on their knees.
