    Handiwork

    I posted a reply in the Accessories forum a while ago, about a sgain dubh I'd made. Someone asked about a picture. Finally found a shot of 3 knives that I completed at that time. The dirk has a damascus blade, the wooden handled sgain dubh was made with a blade from Atlanta Cutlery (the damascus blade came from them as well). The antler handled sgain dubh was made using a blade made by a gent named Morris Taylor. Excellent piece of steel. I made the dirk and the wooden handled sgain dubh to give out as prizes in the Highland Games at the 2002 NRLHF Eastern Primitive Rendezvous. I run the Highland games at one or two of our local events, and the Eastern when it's in my area. The antler handled sgain dubh I made for myself.
    All three of the knives have poured pewter bolsters, and the two wooden handled ones have poured pewter pommels as well

    All skill and effort is to no avail when an angel pees down your drones.
