My new Dubh
Don't know if this should go in the DIY section or here. So, here it is...
A couple of months ago I was talking to my father about the fact that I had started wearing the kilt. My father, who is a master woodworker, was approached about making a sgian dubh for me. After much discussion, he took on the task. Now understand, that he is not an expert on Scottish dress, he simply took a look at what was available and rolled his own...
So, I proudly unveil..... The GLM Sgian Dubh

The material used was purple heart wood, maple, ash, tiger wood, and brass insets...
I rather like it! What do the rest of you think?

"A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon
