Very nice! But you have to ask yourself what it is truly worth to me? Taht's the price for two SWK kilts, and more than half the price for an USA kilt.

David,

For that kind of money I would be looking at Rab Gordon's sgian dubhs.

Why go with someone you don't know when for a little more you can go with an X Marker that is vouched for by some respected members of this forum.
Rab shows his work in nice detail on his site.

I'd check him out.

Cheers

Looks like a very nice vintage quality sgian dubh....not expensive either.

In Scotland....£300 and up, so.....go for it!

It looks like a good sgian dubh no doubt about that, however I would br hard pressed to part with that much $ for an accessory that is coming from an unknown source, when as Panache so rightly pointed out.
