    Idea for a new type of sgian don't

    I've been tossing this idea around in my head for a little while, and I've realized I don't have the particular talents or expertise needed to pull this off. So, I hereby pass this idea out there to all of you in hopes someone can use it. All I ask is that if anyone knows where to get something like this, let me know. If you like my idea and want to make them to sell, send me one.

    That being said, here's the idea: A pen in a sgian dubh. I was thinking pretty much a carved wooden piece that looks like a sgian dubh in a sheath, but when you pull it apart you have a quality pen in the handle. You know, something that might take Cross or Parker refills. Preferably Parker for me, as Cross has gone downhill in the last 15 or so years. I got the idea from looking at sgian brews, and thinking, "I don't drink, so why in the world would I carry one of those?" It would give those of us who don't drink something functional to carry at those times when a real sgian isn't appropriate.
