    Thanks for that info, but they're down to $16 and change right now.

    Really? This is perfect for me then. I am a fiercly proud lefty and have just gotten used to my sgian duhb having the blade pointing upwards when drawn (yes I have drawn it with intent to use once many years ago.) I'll have to check this out.
