I completely agree that a sgian dubh is a tool, not an ornament. The kilt is a very practical item of wear, so is most of the other items worn along with the kilt, so why would I carry something that is useless?
I'm glad TheKiltedWonder clarified his point, and I agree.
Actually, I've been told that all of the Sgian dubh's coming out of the UK are dull now, by law. Pathetic.
I actually refused to wear one for many years until I found one that was usable as a real knife. It was this one-

Unfortunately, it has been discontinued. Blah.

Edit- They are making one called the Brave Heart, here-

A good alternative?
