    Kilt Pins

    Does any one know where I can get some unique kilt pins? I would like to find something other than the usual overly large safety pin or sword. I'm not too fussy as to what type of metal, however; I would like to keep the price under $20 if possible.

    Kilt Pins

    I think these are beautiful and unique:

    but unfortunately they are no where near $20.

    Respectfully,

    Aye, they are beautiful, but way outside Catdad's price point.

    Ebay has some nice Miracle kilt pins at or below $20

    Don't limit yourself to things called kilt pins. I have ordered from here on a couple of occasions and these pins work well as well as being unique.

    this is the kilt pin i own i bought it off ebay for about £12 i think i have seen cheaper on various sites ..its not really unique but i feel its different enough from the standard pin but those badges/brooches that splash_4 has shown the link for look really nice
    remember what ever you feel comfortable with will do ...whether it might not be the traditionalists cuppa mooncha its all about you and your tastes

    Check out this thread in "Kilt Accessories":

    http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/k...863/index.html

    Should be some there to fit your budget, even a couple (just) under $10.

    That's a good idea. I'm going to keep a lookout for a suitably sized Kokopelli pin that I can use. It shouldn't be hard to find here in Arizona since Kokopelli is all over the place.

    For the uneducated, Kokopelli is on petroglyphs all over the Southwest. It is believed he was Zuni and Hopi and was the god of fertility and good harvest.

    It's a little over $20, but I love my celtic knotwork thistle kilt pin from USA Kilts. I've gotten lots of positive comments on it.

    Thanks for posting this link... they are out of my current price range, too, but definitely on The List
