    Being you are in London I believe the law allows you to wear your sgian as long as it is a part of your highland dress. As for myself I am never without one, no legal issues here in Colorado. I also have had a real blade made as most you see are not servicable as blade.

    That is hickory, specifically it was part of a hammer handle. I haven't made an ebony one because...well...I don't have any ebony

    Or maybe it wasn't a good hammer, which is why it is now a bottle opener
