    $40 Sgian

    If what you want is a good functioning knife, that will look reasonable sticking out of your sock, may I suggest the Cold Steel Scottish Spike?



    The white metal and black cord of the handle work for me as a casual sgian. The knife is narrow and slender enough to ride well in a sock, and the blade works well as a working knife. This is my day to day, casual sgian. and the price is 39.95.

    I just spotted this knife on Amazon for $25. Does it come with a sheath?

    Yes, it is a hard composite material (I think they call it krytron) the the blade sort of clicks into. It is not at all thick.
