Not a record price, but...
The Anthony George Maxtone Graham of Cultoquhey cased highland dress set of dirk, sgian dubh, sporran, waist belt, plaid brooch and kilt pin, sold at Bonham’s Edinburgh auction in August. It was estimated to bring between 8,000 and 12,000 and brought GBP10,000 including the buyer's premium. Phew!

Wow! Very smart kit. If I had available funds like that I would have put in for a bid as well!

Lol a week ago mate I thought you had Balavil house lined up. However I agree had funds been available I would have been unknowingly bidding against you.
