Where to find mikitary style regimental kilt pins (not house of labhran)?
Labhran is really overpriced, London scottish house is cheap but out of stock! I’m specifically looking for the square ended ones not just any rounded horse blanket pin. Thanks, don’t care if it’s silver or not!

You could try making your own - sterling silver wire at about 2mm diameter can be bought readily from jewelery suppliers (Cookson Precious Metals in Birmingham is good - www.cooksongold.com), or anything similar would work well.
I made a couple in this style out of a length of brass rod found at a DIY centre. It takes only a few minutes to bend and shape the wire using round-nose pliers, and it's easy.
