    Sure you can leave negative feedback, but be certain you've got something to complain about (like failure to deliver what was described.) Most low cost sgians have a plastic handle and sheath (and a lot of not so low cost ones too.) If I bought any sgian that didn't specifically state that the handle was wood or bone, I would assume its plastic, regardless of the country of origin.

    If you do some shopping around you know what a "good" sgian costs, and can make a judgment about what to expect. When I bought an $8.00 sgian (shipping included!) I didn't expect it to be anything more than what it is, something decorative to put in my sock, and it serves that function admirably. (I don't want to wear my hand-carved sgian with silver fittings at a Highland games.) I also suspect that sgians of similar quality are sold for many times more.

    Best regards,

    Jake
