Historical Curiosity question

[Nighthawk]

Um, that sounds more like a carpenter joke... So cut it out.

Ouch!! My brain! It hurts! That was great and terrible all at the same time.

Hee hee hee, I try.

I guess i'm not too much into wearing historically accurat garb and that stuff. I like modern traditional kilts, and some contemporary, all made from machine woven fabrics. I know some people who aim for handwoven belted plads, though. They also try to be accurate in the rest of the reenactment.

[Howard Clark]

The only reason a blacksmith would wear a kilt is to be comfortable, at least a modern one.

And blacksmiths of old had to hit ALL the nails on the head before the carpenter ever saw them!

[Jaggy thistle]

The local blacksmith when I was young wore a long leather apron which came way down past his knees it would have covered a kilt completely he wore trousers however

You know, I've been thinking about it... I think he wore trews.

Just doesn't seem right with the kilt.
