Functional Sgians
I like sharp, functional knives and usually have a suitable sgian when kilted or a small, folding pocket knife when p@nted. Not as weapons per se, but rather as tools.
When I went to Hong Kong for a year on exchange, a bunch of my kilt gear went missing in the move. I used to have a Colt burl wood sgian, which had a decent edge and full tang construction. It was perfect for day wear and looked like this one (image borrowed a fellow Xmarker):

I'm thinking of getting another Colt or, for around the same price ($20ish on eBay), a Cold Steel Secret Edge:

Recently, however, I came across this interesting adaptation of the traditional sgian by Artificum Solis Bladeworks. It's not too expensive at $87, though still a bit out of my price range...

Who else owns or has their eyes on a functional day wear sgian to tempt me with? Pictures please!
