Quality of Kilt Pins

[CMcG]

I used to use a blanket style pin, giant safety pin for saddle blankets and such, in fact, it's still in the apron of my kilt. It was steel, and would not have bent very easly.

This is both a traditional and practical choice. A good horse blanket kilt pin is solid, stays closed, and has some weight to it. On the other hand, there are other pins that look fancier for something like a formal event.
