    Grouse Claw kiltpin



    I think they're pretty cool!...my wife thinks they're pretty disgusting

    These will look great on ancient, weathered and hunting tartans.

    Anyone has a grouse claw kiltpin?

    There also "less creepy" versions...


    A pewter grouse claw from (not 100% sure) the Wallace Collection.


    And lots of fuzzy furby type versions.

    The grouse claws were good luck charms for hunters, so I think they look best on weathered and hunting tartans.

    I like the "raw look" of the 1st image most :rolleyes:

    grouse claw...

    I must admit I rather like the grouse claw kilt pin, although I prefer the all-pewter one myself. They look like something a Highland ghillie would wear.

    Cheers,

    Todd

    Sweet. Man, I can't afford to stock up on kilts, but now I'm thinking a variety of kilt pins could be a lot of fun...

    I like the first one.

    One of the characteristics of grouse is feathers on the feet.

    I like the white feather without a jewel.

    I like those, but my wife won't allow one in the house. She says it's revolting.

    I like the pewter one. Perhaps a pigeon claw would be best for those in New York.
