    There are several fine craftsmen working in this vein in the USA as well.

    That said, for the money they look very nice. I'd carry one.
    I'd carry on too. Anyone want to give me one so I can carry it?

    Horn handled canes.

    I was interested to read the posts on walking canes to carry while wearing the kilt, I make the handles for folk to mount on their own canes, you can see them at:-

    www.scottishsgiandubhs.com

    If anyone is interested, I can pass on tips on how to mount the stick heads , or if you want to finish them yourself, tell you how to get the best finish.
    You will find them under the Horncraft heading.

    Slainte..........Jim.

    Those are COOL. Oddly enough, the company seems to be doing the same thing I'm thinking about doing with kilts from Kyrgyzstan. Details to follow, as I prepare my thoughts.
