    Thanks for clearing that up.

    * I had considered a Mcmurdo style skunk sporran.

    * Oops, I forgot about the Celtic Croft sporran.

    It was my understanding, after I bought the sporran, that a black tie sporran should have fur with a metal cantle. I think Panache has a picture back there. It's black leather with the chromed cantle, and has leather leafe work of some sort on the front.

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
