A reputable Black Isle firm, Curly. Martin Hyslop is locally well-known as a supplier of quality products to an enlarging client base. You have chosen well. I hope you post pics of what you make.

Thanks for the information. However...two more email queries and a phone call[disconnected phone] leads me to suspect something is afoot here.

Please keep us posted on what happens with this! I want one of those blades, but don't want to buy from a defunct company... Thanks for the company name, by the way!!

Thanks ThistleDown...perhaps a "man on the ground" locally may help.Could be there was a glitch in the overseas call ...[shrugs] who knows. At any rate...thanks a lot!

Nighthawk... I have two sgian handles carved from mahogany I had laying about. One is for a piper I know. I 'm currently doing two market stick variations with some carved elements. I'm interested in doing one for my son who does a lot of Ren Fair stuff. The stick has to be able to break down for packing. Should be fun.
