here is a pic of my first sgian dubh. I took an el-cheapo sgian dubh and cut the plastic handle off and attached it to an antler base that I had. Then I epoxied the crap out of it since it didn't have a tang to attach with. The sheath part I wraped the blade in soft leather, then ran a stitch one side and trimmed. I cut some really thick cowhide and stitched it and glued for good measure. Finally I wrapped it in the soft leather again. I am very pleased with the results, not bad for having hardly anything but creativity in it.
