Nah. Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. I looked it up and he did not say it. Well, he is not quoted as having said it. Two different things.

You know what's even better than that? This:

Who said this:

That is a fine piece of craftsmanship, is it not, sir? Mark's buckles are the best, and no mistake.

DBH, I'm guessing.

I guess DBH as well!

Yup, that is fine look there DBH. There is a sphere of distinction about your garb that would be seen in a high-end catalog.

Putting an outfit together from people is a lot of fun, and the reward is in the look and feel.

I think that look has been exemplified by Matt Newsome and Ryan Ross and now David. Folks, take a look at their pictures and you will see what I mean.

Thank you for asking me to be a part of it.

I've a question for you artsy folk in here. I know there exist fancier sporran chains out there, but what about "fancy" sporran straps? I've never seen any in pictures or offered on any of the sites, but that definitely doesn't mean they don't exist. I've been thinking of making a strap with some sort of Celtic knotwork on it; thoughts?

**Ryan Ross** · 23rd February 12, 11:56 PM

I think a really well done celtic knotwork sporran belt would look killer, actually. It's a go, in my book!

If the choice was between Bud (which is not beer, in my book) and RWW, I think you got the better end of the deal!

Oo oo oo -- just checked Amazon, and he's got a new book coming out March 6! I haven't been doing as much reading lately as normal (edged out by tartan vest, shepherd's check kilt hose, mink sporran. . .) but anything new from RWW, Lee Child, or Stephen Hunter gets my attention.

Hell yes. Lee Child (Jack Reacher) is super reading.

Have you read books Vince Flynn, and Brad Thor? If you have not, then strap one on and get ready!

**sydnie7** · 27th February 12, 01:23 PM

Oh yes, Flynn and Thor are regulars around here. Bob (and I, when I'm not knitting etc.) go through a dozen or so books a month. Always a thrill to find a new series to devour!
