    Oh Happy Day! Love the sgian, a great piece of craftsmanship. Any way you can work out the year from the hallmarks?

    Regards

    Congratulations! I bid too, but couldn't justify going that high myself. Glad it turned out to be even more of a find than expected.
    Cheers,
    John

    Yeah, it was more than I had planned on, but I have my first formal event this weekend as a kiltwearer, and am whipping together a formal kit. This was the last bit. The L&M sporran would have cost me around $270-300 plus shipping anyway, so I went ahead. The sgian was a great bonus!
