    Glen,

    Here is the snake pin

    Ahem!

    ...gave to me!

    It is a favorite because it was a gift! from my lovely wife!

    However it was only temporarily on my new IoS Freedom Kilt.

    Now I have had a lovely pin for the last 20 years which I dearly love but seldom have had occasion to wear. It always seemed like it would make a good kilt pin, but I wanted the right kilt/tartan to wear it on.

    My IoS Freedom Kilt was the one. I popped off the simple light-weight straight pin back and epoxied three "tie tack" pin backs in its place.

    I think it goes well with the tartan



    I believe it is a Japanese crest or kamon.

    Cheers

    Jamie

    Well, would you look at that: A one-eyed kilt snake! I never thought I'd see one of those here.









    At any moment you must be prepared to give up who you are today for who you could become tomorrow.

    That is the pic that made me think he had a shrunken head, found out later that is a fly swatter and not a shrunken head. I was mildly disappointed.

    Dang, I almost want one of those pins now, except I hate snakes.

    I am thinking of the next time I am wearing my kilt randomly of wearing my black "you can't handle the truth' shirt. But I think that kilt pin is better.
