Dating a MOD kilt?

[Chefdave]

Just picked up another cool MOD kilt (Seaforth) and I'm trying to date it as it seems pretty old. I'd add some pics but my camera is being flaky.

-22 oz.
-Knife pleated
-No left buckle/strap at all
-2 right buckles/straps that definitely seem to be added later
-Leather straps of the buckles are stamped "1947"

The "1947" seems like a great clue except that the buckles were added after the fact.

Any help? :confused:

When I read the Thread Title... I thought it was going to involve going out to dinner and a movie!?!



Silly Me!

Is the love of the kilt ever unnatural?

What I thought about when I first read this description was the kilts sold over at What Price Glory ... which I think are replicas of WWI kilts. I think.

I have a Seaforth. Handsome as the devil, aren't they?
