Well, that makes sense! But when you talked about a $2K outfit, I realized that we were and are in different strata entirely!

I don't hang out in areas where the sgian dubh isn't welcome, nor do I own a $2K outfit.

I only have three sgian dubh's at present but all are functional, with quality blades. I wouldn't carry a tool that I couldn't use.

I'm not trying to flame here - I just realize that we are in different worlds. The phrase "quality fake" seems like an oxymoron to me.

Good luck in your search.
