I'm looking to replace my USAK Ramsay semi-trad (now way too big for me), and if it's available with a selvedge I might buy a new one from USAK.
Like chasem said, my Ramsay kilt is a 5 Yard 16oz woolie, not PV. And yes, there is a very clean selvedge. Also, I think there quite a difference between the wool and PV blues, and the blues in wool differ quite a bit between mills as well. In the wool samples I saw some are like a "French" blue and others are darker like a "Colonial" blue. Some also have a thicker, more pronounced white stripe. Mine is more like the Colonial blue witha thinner white stripe, though I think the "French" blue with the thicker stripe looks nice too.
Sorry, no more pics yet. I've had a busy weekend...
