MODERN Kilt Buckle
Greetings,
I'm looking for a place that might sell Modern kilt buckles... I have a traditional belt, but would like something with a skull motif or otherwise "bad-@$$" buckle.
Any suggestions?

Perhaps someone else can point you in the right direction, but I can't say I've seen anything like that, that I can recall
That might have to be a custom made item, or you might have to adapt an existing buckle.

But Is It Big Enough?
I have an email from Glen Esk that says they don't do 2.5" belt buckles. Will this fit that width of belt?

Find someone who can braze or weld the necessary hardware to the buckle you want, and anything should work. For custom or enamel stuff, you might be looking at custom leatherwork to fit it, but there are people here who can help you out. Other option would be to ask the manufacturer if they can change the hardware for you, prior to adding paint.
There's a kickass buckle shop in Estes Park, I've been meaning to head up there, but haven't had time or an excuse yet.

It looks better in person. I saw somebody wearing out out at a Games and I just had to have one. The deerhead is in nice relief, somewhat 3-d.
It's part of an en suite set by Glen Esk which includes a sporran cantle and kilt pin.
I have this buckle however I had it Gold Plated.
