Personally if I were going to buy a kilt in Black Stewart I would almost certainly go with Marton Mills'
Stewart Black Muted
https://martonmills.com/product/stewart-m-black/
For one thing, I very much prefer 16 ounce wool over any other kilt fabric.
It just looks better and feels better, IMHO.
BTW I don't know the difference between these two 16 ounce House of Edgar tartans, which USA Kilts lists as
Stewart Black Modern
Stewart Black Modern (N)
I'm assuming that the N stands for Nevis, that is, House of Edgar's "Nevis" range of tartans

Thing is, I don't know what makes "Nevis" 16 ounce tartans different from their non-Nevis 16 ounce tartans.
I'm sure that if we had swatches of both in hand there would be a difference.
My other choice for Stewart Black would be House of Edgar's "Hebridean" range
