    If you haven't bought your jackets, waistcoats and whatever accessories yet I found a post that you should check out. HRH Prince Charles has been wearing kilts stylishly for decades, I don't know how much is him and how much is his valet but you could do far worse than to copy his style!
    Now I'm going to turn around and agree with wildrover. If you want a sgian don't feel limited to "Scottish" stores. If you find one there, great, but look around. Any somber colored, fixed blade knife with a blade no more than 3-4 inches is fine. If it is nice and sharp or a beautiful blade in its own right then you have even more leeway. I grew up always having a pocket knife and feel naked without one, as evidenced by the many I've had confiscated. There is a lot of history to the "black knife," they're useful and I would err to the side of having it and not needing it than the reverse.
    Good luck with your wardrobe.

    If your buddy tells you to "check 6" on the radio, you know you're pretty much f**ed! If he says it in a bar... well, it depends on how you play your cards.
