    You Can't Go Wrong

    I own ten UKs, three PKs, and four AKs. Bought three of the AKs while jonesing for my first UK. The shipping was fast and I got a thank you call from Mike.

    I especially like AKs tiger stripe camo (does that date me or what?) and their "putty" which is a great War 2 khaki color.

    I took the logo patch off three of my AKs, it just seemed to clash with the colors. Did leave it on the black AK.

    The AK snaps are smaller, but that hasn't seemed to be a problem.

    I like the UK front apron rig better for a casual kilt since it automatically drops between my legs when I sit. My AKs seem to stretch out into a skirt like look. But I've worn my AKs to formal gigs like friend's funerals because it has the traditional type apron.

    Here in the high desert the AKs are cooler in the summer.

    Mike's big secret is the GREAT belts he offers. He has a guy somewhere that makes them for him. They are an EXCELLENT kilt belt, a great value. If you ask you can get the belt in brown too.

    You can't go wrong buying from AK, UK, PK, FK, RK....

    Ak

    I got a sweet deal on a "one off" blue denim AK on Ebay a while back and while it's much, much lighter than my UK I still dig it alot. The thing I like about the AK in relation to a UK... is how wide the waistband is. I like that it's really wide and seems to fit a wide belt better.
    I'd definately buy an AK again if I could get the same deal (it was just under 100 bucks)
