Another shot at a kilt pin.

Kilted Chief posted a link to Bold Blades in another thread. While perusing their site, I found this kilt pin. According to Bold Blades, this pin is their own design. At $22.50 USD, it is reasonably priced as well. http://www.boldblades.com/Clothing%2...cessories.html

I like that pin very much! And it's a very reasonable price too.

They also have some very inexpensive sporrans on that page; does anyone know about the quality of these?

I haven't shopped their ste, but I too like that kilt pin, very sharp! Well detailed and a good price too!

I don't know if it is thier own design or not, but I purchased one similar to it from Ted Sheldon a few years ago at a local Scottish festival. Ted Sheldon is a pewtersmith that used to travel to different games. Matt used to sell some of his kilt pins through the museum.

The kilt pin is made by Ted Sheldon. I am the owner of Bold Blades and I asked him to do so. We supplied illustrations and our friend Ted finalized the design, which we approved. Before that he did not provide a pin of this type. So, I think it is safe to say that the pin is our design, although we do not say that on our web site or in our catalog.

Our sporrans are a good value for the price. We try to provide quality merchandise for someone starting out in "being Scottish". We are aware that as time goes by upgrading of gear is standard but if we help someone put together their outfit at a reasonable cost to themselves, not easy to do these days, then we feel like we have done our job.

Welcome to the forum. I like your business philosophy. I would hope you'll be posting more on the board.

Thanks for the warm welcome. I just found out that your moderator teaches High School with my daughter-in-law! Small world.

I will look in as often as I can and try to provide input. My primary interest is in history and especially as it pertains to weaponry - naturally. I have had four article published in The Highlander on those subjects and have two more in preparation.

Thank you again for the kind words. I wish I had known about this forum before today.

I think you 'll find there are more than a few members on the forum with those same interests.
