Thanks Tono,

It's probably best to talk about deals off-forum.
I don't know what the forum etiquette is for commercial matters.

Best Regards,
Rab

I think they are great if you are looking for something "Old Skool" to wear with your modern scottish clothing.

From a Reenactor standpoint they aint so hot. There are other cheaper dirks out there that are more authentic. And then there are the Glen McClain Dirks for 2-3 times what this guy charges. Nice thing about Glen's dirks is that you can really get the goat of museum folks. Nothing like walking up to a Curator and handing him an exact copy that Glen made of something thats supposedly on display and watch them deficate fired earth building materials.

Great stuff.

I have to agree with Glen here, this thread should come with a warning
' Could seriously damage your wallets wealth'....
Excellent damascus, I want one.

Ahh, there's the rub: I'm not a re-enactor. I'm just looking for a well made blade with a good edge that is presentable for formal occaissions (perhaps even to become a family heirloom?). From the photos on the website they appear to be everything I'm looking for-plus, I'm intrigued by the bog oak handles. :-)

Bryan...I'm a fan of Craftsmanship, since I posess none of my own... :grin:
