    God has blessed me and allowed my wonderful wife to buy this for me.
    I have Finally Got one ! I have been shadowing EBAY and watching for
    some time now . I was at the North Alabama Games this year and met a
    very a generous man willing to sell me a MOD Cantle sporran .
    so here is my MOD Brass Cantle sporran . I am going to finish the bag
    and hopefully make many more bags for it .
    But Finally I get to be a part of the MOD Cantle club . which I have wanted to join for some time .
    Thank you David !

    Welcome to the club! There's a secret handshake too, but you'll have to be shown that in person by another member.

    As for which style cantle it is, Downunder Kilt posted a description of the variations a while back. Based on his descriptions, yours appears to be either a MkII or MkIV. Comparing it to other photos I've seen, I'm going to guess yours is a MkIV, based on the size of the dimples. If I'm wrong, someone will correct me, I'm sure.

    I assume when you say "bottom" and "top", you mean the one laying on top of the other one, not actual up/down in the photo, right?
