    A while back there was a thread about "occupational kilt pins." I made the mention that if I had an occupational kilt pin, it would be an erlenmyer flask because I manage a laboratory. So, one of our members "Blacksmith" was kind of enough to make one for me. I often wear it with my Irish Saffron kilt. But, I think it will go great with my pending Henderson weathered, box pleat and the brown accessories I purchased from Robin a couple of weeks ago.

    I don't have any unusal kilt pins Yet. Still thinking about what I would want. Occupation wise, I am a Locksmith and a Locksmith Instructor. Imade a kilt pin for Dirkskene out of an old brass "skeleton" key.

I really love to see a bit of individuality in Highland dress and if you have an accessory thats a bit different, I'd like to see a photo or hear the story behind, rather than see photo's of mass produced goods What makes your outfit unique???

    Repro of the cap device of the 69th N.Y.V.I., the original "Fighting Irish". Unlike the Royal Irish Regiment, this one has no crown.
