    The obsidian one is very nice. I got one too and it does wear well even without a sheath.

    Great looking set. The obsidian looking blade is very cool. Does it have an edge at all (is it functional) or is it for show? In either case a very unique item.

    It is plastic. So no, it is no where near functional. But it looks cool

    A couple week ago someone put up a link to a very nice and functional line of plastic [ceramic?] blades including a contemporary sgian dubh.
    All three of those look very nice.
