My new sgian dubh
I recently received a sgian I'd ordered from a knifemaker in Fredericksburg, Texas and wanted to get some feedback from forum members.
I was wanting something simple for day wear, but that was a functional blade, when I happened to meet a knifemaker while on a trip to Fredericksburg. Though he'd never made anything of this nature before, I provided a sketch of what I was after and he knocked it out.

The blade is ATS 34 stainless (Rockwell hardness 60-61), and the handle is a stabilized African Blackwood.
Here's a link the the knifemaker's site:http://www.lgknives.com/
