sgian dubh--good quality for special friend
All:
I'm looking for a sgian dubh for a very special friend. One of a kind, customs are probably too expensive, but I'd like something nice, with an interesting blade and possibility of envgraving on the hilt top. or jeweled hilt top. Used and well maintained fine. Im looking for more traditional than modern. If anyone has ideas of good, reputable dealers, I'd appreciate that too. I've been googling away, but I am definitely not a knife specialist!

You can try James Young at Comrie Crafts here:

Nice knives at, what I think are, reasonable prices.
Best of luck!
