    How about this... I just saw this on the Sport Kilt website. It's a flask belt buckle. I really like this. I wish it was a bit more "disguised". But, pretty cool.

    Only problem there is that its for a 1 3/4 inch belt. it wont fit a 2.5 inch kilt belt. I bet it could be modified, but then is it worth the purchase

    Thanks, Jim...

    I actually don't carry a flask too often. In fact I can't think of a time when I carried one while kilted. I guess my way of thinking is that if they don't have Scotch whereever I'm going, I'll just have a Guinness.

    I've been desperately trying to find the clip from Life On Mars where Gene Hunt takes a bullet to the hip flask...it's a good one...very instructive on where to carry it (and how many to carry). Can't find it, though...those who have seen it in both the UK and US versions know what I mean.

    Are you saying that I should cover myself with flasks in order to protect against harm? Needless to say, regardless of the protective value of said flasks, after about 30 minutes of walking around with so much tempting libation at hand I wouldn't much care either way :P

    ...not to mention the weight and all that sloshing around.

    Not sure whether I ought to weigh in here, since I have never carried a flask (with liquor, that is).
    An army water bottle hardly qualifies as a flask.
    But some of the guys in my regiment had pockets sewn into their inner aprons for the purpose of carrying a small amount of whisky (or a substitute) in a glass or other container.
    Regards,

    When I used to ride to hounds, I carried my flask attached to my saddle in a special leather pouch, these days when out shooting,point to points, Highland games, or some such, I carry it in the back of the car with 8 accompanying silver tumblers. Contents? "Fox's blood"-----two thirds port, one third brandy.

    I usually just shove it in my belt. No room in the sporran and I don't have a hanger for the current round flask I am using.
