    My First Sgian

    I guess I should have posted this one first, or perhaps, both together, but this will have to do, the blade is another el cheapo ($3 made in China) the handle is out of red oak with Clan MacAlpines motto, the pine bow, and trinity symbol, I'm gonna do a "real one" after some more expierimentation, I hopefully will also to a kick-butt dirk eventually.


    Thanks for looking, and for your comments/critisms, alls welcome.

    I like it, looks as if it would be real comfy in the hand.
