Vintage Accessories - Sgian Dubh

[Border Collie Dave]

I am waiting until our next trip to Scotland to buy a nice sgian dubh. I personally prefer antique/vintage objects of this nature. Something that I am confused about, however, is that Thomas Ebbutt sgian dubhs are promoted as fine creations, typically cost several hundred dollars (which I find a bit ridiculous for any small knife, absent gold or jeweled fixtures) but to me, they look like costume jewellery.

Does anyone here know of any places (of the brick and mortar type) in Scotland that carry vintage Highland attire?

This is a recent example of TKE sgian dubh (ebay), and I'm just not impressed. Am I missing something?TKESgianDubh.jpg

Addendum: Two things that makes this look cheap to me is 1. the cast hardware. That is not hand engraved or anything of the sort. and 2. The very poorly polished SS blade.
