    Since Mr. MacDougall didn't have any flix, and since I just got my new standard in Blackwatch, I thought I would add them to this review.

    I should say that I have been very pleased with all my dealings with Jerry at SWK.

    This shows the kilt right out of the box with the basting still in:



    This shows the inside showing the liner





    This shows the liner lifted revealing the back, inside.


    The kilt has 32 pleats, just under 2" deep. Deep final left pleat and deep reverse right pleat. Nice buckles and leather. I found no problem getting the trap through the hole.

    The flix have been lightened to help show some detail.

    Thanks for the pictures! I was hoping that the standard was fully reversable because i love that feature with the thrifty, but oh well. I'll still get one anyways.

    This shows another view of the back

    Showing all pleats across - pleated to sett

    showing that the pleats have about 1" overlap

    and about 2" deep

    Front view with very handsome model.

    Back view with same very handsome model.

    The Captain Morgain pose, again with the very handsome model.


    I hope this gives some visual aids to a SWK Standard
