    To clarify - If someone is wearing a British Commando Knife, A Fairbairn/Sikes, with their kilt, this is the proper forum section to post.

    With that said, I know this young man. He is one of those "More Scottish than the Scots" who prides himself of his "Traditional" approach to kilt wearing. To him wearing a dirk with a kilt is required to keep the Tradition even though everything else about his outfit is casual and modern.

    He is one of those who will wear a kilt, jacket, vest, hose, fly plaid all in the same Tartan and tell anyone who will listen how correct and traditional he is.

    Do you really need a dirk? Well if you are a pipe major and it is part of your uniform - Or going to cut the haggis - Then maybe. Otherwise i can't think of a single reason to need a knife that large today.
