Flint stone (silex) kilt pin????

Thanks guys. I'm a bit concerned also about how heavy such pin would be. Will see...

Here's a pin I made from a quartzite spear point. I set it into molten pewter, then hollowed out the rear to lighten it up. It is still rather heavy, so I wear it half-way up the apron edge as I have seen in early 1900's photos.
