    Nice work. Did you make this, commission this, or simply purchase it somewhere?

    Thanks all.
    @ Orionson, I made both, cantle and bag. I made this sporran to be auctioned at our Clan Donnachaidh AGM/dinner later this month. I have made an identical cantle for a sporran that I am making for my stepson. pictures will follow when that is done.

    Wow, I'm impressed. Really well done. Best of luck at the Auction. Ooh... wait a minute...

    Humm... now here's a thought for you... why don't you open up the bidding here - and, on any other Kilt sites you may be a member of. You could invite bids from interested parties to be submitted to you via email or private message and include them in the bidding on the Night at your AGM. I have little doubt that quite a number of people here may like to have the opportunity to own this fine sporran. You could post a notice in the For Sale Section to avoid running foul of any proscriptive rules.

    Pics of the next one, and word of how well the Sporran does on the night would be appreciated. Again, good luck!

    It's a thought but I have committed this one for the dinner but I might consider that in the future.

    I'm not suggesting that you withdraw it from the Dinner Auction, only that you include the internet bids on the Night. Doing so may help to set a marker and drive up the price.
