Thanks Grant - I've been looking for and still hope to find just the perfect kilt pin for my HBC kilt. I'm thinking of a silver beaver.

The next time I'm at a Bay store I'll look around and see if anything tickles my fancy.

Grant, thanks for the post. As I have mentioned before, I do research on the "Bay Co" (Fur Trade era ) & my "persona" is a HBC trader. Those trade coins were good & the right $$$

James MacMillian needs a nice beaver sporran. As a fur trader re-enactor you might want to trade a beaver pelt for his new HBC kilt  .

That is a "modern" version of a CAPOTE. There are dif. styles. (incl. a shorter version) NOTE - suggest the grey HBC blanket to match the HBC taran.
Here is mine made from a "4pt HBC Blanket"
as to "beaver sporrans" here are 2 I made 
The right hand one has a "modern HBC pin "dropped"on it.( 1 1/2" dia.)
The left hand one has a Red Fox Tail added.
If you wish more info on were to get items like this, or how to make them, contact me.
BTW - I am saving up to get a "HBC tartan Kilt"
