    Bob,

    Nice pictures. I have been wondering how I am to wear my dirk without a belt for our upcoming Burn's night next week. I was thinking about using my leather sporran belt for the knife and the chain belt for the sporran, hmmm I'd better try it out before Saturday. You and your wife look great and it sounds you both had a great time.

    Thanks for the demo on openning a bottle with your dirk! One question though: How much champagne is lost?

    I don't think I dare do that with my dirk after getting the carbon steel blade sharpened to a razor edge (Haggis everywhere beware! )

    Cheers

    No champagne is lost. If your dirk has a dull side, use that. If it's sharp on both sides for the full length, I wouldn't use it for this.
