On this week's new "Pawn Stars" on History a man comes in with his grandfather's Scottish blades. The dirk turns out to be a reproduction, but the "dagger" is a real antique that grandpa brought back after the war. There are no kilts in sight and I don't even remember their saying the word, but there is a good layman's explanation of the style and use of the sgian and why certain parts look the way they do.
