    Wow!!! I love that sgian dubh! To me it's the ideal size, shape and simple design that is perfect for day wear. The dirk is great, too, but I don't wear one so it's purely eye candy.

    A fantastic looking set. What a great heirloom to treasure.

    I believe that the correct term is "sweet!".

    Nice cutlery.
