The sgian dubh that I probably won't make, but might

[Alan H]

Alan - why not mold an entire sgian dubh, sheath and all as a one piece from carbon fiber? Grind it to shape and finish with a coat of epoxy and you would have something that would look great in the sock, but be a 'safety' sgian dubh without a blade.

In fact I might have enough to do that. It's unidirectional, though, not triaxial, so the structure might not be there. But it's a thought!

Alan,

I haven't forgotten that I owe you a dress sgian don't.

Cheers
