Frugal Corner
While browsing around, I noticed that The Frugal Corner had a special on thier 13oz kilts in Blackwatch or Royal Stewart, (see http://www.thefrugalcorner.com/specials.htm). I've got a Blackwatch already, but nothing in red, so I decided to give the Royal Stewart a go. Ordered it last Friday, 12/14, and got the order yesterday, 12/20. Decent turnaround time, especially based on some of the issues I have heard here. I will post pics when I get the chance.
Looks good - no major complaints. Fairly similar to a SWK - maybe a cross between a Standard and a Thrifty. One small issue, though, is with the straps and buckles. These appear to me to be the cheapest strap/buckle combinations I have seen. I had to make the holes on the straps larger to allow for easy buckling. Beyond that, looks pretty good.
Just thought I would share!

Sure - It's a "sale" but the price is still above Jerry at SWK - - - ?

I'm glad you had such a fast turn around. I'm in my fifth week of waiting for delivery (we were told 6-8 weeks). I'm guessing yours was an off-the rack purchase.

Glad it worked out for you, hope you enjoy.
I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

First, Congratulations on the new Kilt!
Second, Congratulations on the new Kilt!
Third, its good to hear that you had a decent experience with FC. Aside from learning a new version of the definition for patience, my dealings with them have been very positive. Nice folks struggling to create a new business servicing our needs (ok maybe wants is more accurate than needs).
and Lastly, congratulations on the new Kilt!
Cheers,

Above a Thrifty, but below a Standard.
