    I'm not a piper, but that's pretty cool. I had to look at it twice before it dawned on me what it's made from...or made to look like. It sort of has the look of an Asian weapon IMO. If only I had the dough.
    The grass is greener on the other side of the fence...and it's usually greenest right above the septic tank.

    I must say that I am tempted. Sgians dubh in the UK tend to be either very run-of-the-mill or top end of the market. It is a bit quirky and the price would not be bad.

    Regards

    If I weren't broke, you'd be bidding against me!

    Same here. I wouldn't want it for myself, but I know a fledgling piper who would really get a lift by getting it as a present.

    I thought it was pretty clever. Not what I would wear but clever none the less.
