Hi All,

Thought I needed to post something here by way of giving back to this community; and to open channels for future learning. Having battled so hard in South Africa to find sgians and kilt pins for my groomsmen when I got married I decided to try my hand at making them. And it was lochnessorigins.com and this site that I visited repeatedly to try and get a sense of how these knives were best made. For my 30th I ordered components from Rainnea, and I thought it would be fitting to post the results here.

Thanks for all the DIY post contributers!

... I get this far and realise I have no idea how to post the pictures in this thread. Alas, I will figure it out eventually.
