    Not sure why I'm able to view & no one else seem's able, so I'm taking the liberty of posting the photo from the website + info here for everyone:



    Price: $1,500.00 CDN
    Handles made of antlers, blades of hand-forged steel, and a Celtic knot carved into the ends of the horn. Scabbards for both are made from 200-year-old leather with hand-engraved sterling silver bands and chape. The skean Duhb comes with a thin leather strap to prevent accidental loss from the stocking top.

    The carved horn detail is nice. I think I will get my dremel out and give that a try!
