First use of a sgian dubh

Yep... I always carry some type of utility knife, and I usually end up needing it at least once per day. I think everyone should carry one... unless they're crazy or accident prone, that is.

Nice. Personally I would have used the sgian to get the whole thing from my friend but then I love scotch eggs.

Sgian Dubh's are for cleaning fingernails, Claymores are for splitting scotch eggs. You're sending sending a boy to do a man's job, it's a valid excuse to carry the Claymore
