Gentlemen,

I have an individual who is making a custom kilt pin for me *but* he isn't sure on what would be an appropriate pin (or source for such) to use for the actual "pin".

Because the items he usually makes have the pin & clutch back device, or a 'safety type pin' (for lack of another word) that he feels would be too fragile for my use.

Does anybody have suggestions for what he should use for the actual pin, & /or a source to obtain the same?

The kilt pin itself is aprox. 1 1/2" wide x 1 1/4" tall.

Thanks.
