Very nice. Afraid I've yet to acquire any live pieces - I've got a Hanwei Practical Broadsword for training (Page 1746, woooooo!) and a 'dress' sgian. I'm working on making a sgian for myself, and if that goes well I'll follow it with a dirk. IF and only IF those go well enough, I'll consider making myself a baskethilt - but I'll buy a blade - probably an ATrim (I've actually got a AT1320 on order from the infamous sale).
Nice blades gents. Like the targes too.

My backsword by Michael 'Tinker' Pearce. This is a copy of a sword found on the battlefield of Wakefield. Again, not Scottish exactly but would have been used by Scottish soldiers during the late 15th c.
