    the three-dollar sgian dubh

    I scored this little baby for three lousy bucks at the Gig Harbor Renaissance Faire. Like I wrote earlier, the guys handling luggage at Southwest Airlines inspected my bags and took the sheath, but not the knife. However, an hour with a belt that's way too small for me, an X-acto knife, a hammer and a sharp nail, and some stout buttonhole thread, and I've got a new sheath that's nearly as good looking as the old one.

    Anyway, I'm trying out the macro setting on this digital camera, and I thought you all might get a kick out of my sgian dubh. I wasn't ever going to buy one, though I thought I might MAKE one for a project someday, but for three lousy bucks, I had to spring for it. This knife is six inches long; blade and handle.
