On a short trip with no checked baggage, visiting family. Borrowed a clinch pick from my soon-to-be son-in-law (which I gave him as a birthday present).

My new sgian-dubh from Ken Brock.
He had a release of these, but I hemmed and hawed over it and missed getting one before they were discontinued.
An associate on another forum suggested that I email Ken to be put on a list for the next run.
I did so and Ken emailed me back that he had a blank for me if I wanted it.
I wasn't going to miss my opportunity again and told him I'd take it.
It took him only about a week to finish and ship the knife.
I'm really happy with it!
Is the boy you were proud of the man you are?

Awesome! Ken is a dear friend of mine and it's great to see people enjoying his knives.Originally Posted by Andy in NH

I'm still waiting for an opportunity to wear it with kilt and hose, but I wanted something more than just the typical ceremonial drone.
The sheath retention is a little tighter than than I'd prefer, so I need to spend some time with it and a hairdryer.

These hang in my office. Had them custom made by a black smith.
