    The pair on the right are the ones I wear most of the time at the moment. They were my great-grandfather's, I've never looked for them in antique shops but I'm sure they're around.

    I have a similar pair. That they snap together makes them very convenient.

    I have 8 or 9 pairs of cufflinks, all from family (mainly my grandpa). Unfortunately, most of them are gold and all my other kilt accessories are silver (I don't like mixing the two—I don't know if it's a rule or not, but I think it looks off). So I need to find a couple pairs of silver (or pewter or steel or whatever) links that I like.

    Until then, the aforementioned monkey's fists are working well enough!
