    I too like the look of one on my calf. it completes the ensemble. Unfortunately the knife can get you in more trouble than it is worth.
    I would like to see a tool that looks like a trad Dub on top. But is a Bottle Opener,some other usefull tool hidden in the sheath.
    Has anyone seen one? Or is anyone in the business to make one?

    I just purchased a sgian dubh from the BudK Catalog. The selection isn't the greatest, but the prices are rather good. www.budk.com

    That bottle opener though, I think I need one of those too...

    I just use a steak knife.

    Sorry, couldn't resist. I don't carry one, so I have no opinion.
