Sgian Dubh from Kult of Athena
I just got a Sgian Dubh from Kult of Athena. They have them from $5 to $65 plus sharpening for $10 if you wish. I wish - never know when a steak needs cutting or a cat skinning - 
It's A Joke!
I think they are suppliers for the reinactment crowd mostly.
I did the search for you : http://kultofathena.com/s_results.asp?search=sgian
Now I have to learn how to wear it "correctly".
Got it jammed in my compression sock now - quite comfy and secure. Knife comes out sheath stays.
What I got: http://kultofathena.com/product.asp?item=400910
$54.95 sharp and shipped
Tis sharpened at a pretty high angle. Too high for slicing tomatoes.
It looks like stainless. The blade had a Made in India sticker. The sheath is leather or leatherete covered. The handle is well polished wood or plastic. After the made in India sticker is removed, removal of the blade from sheath is zero force. Just tucked it deeper in my sock - LOL For the price I think it is a good purchase.
UPDATE a touch of gentle hammer work on sheath and the removal force is A-OK.
Sorry - kilt is too high - slipped up when I was kneeling to fuss with camera - LOL I try to hide the OF wrinkles above my knees.

Pants is only a present tense verb here. I once panted, but it's all cool now.
