That is just amazing, great photos, I bet that kilt could tell some stories.

I've got an MOD Seaforth Highlanders (MacKenzie) knife pleated to the stripe.

It's had straps added to it which are stamped "1943" but I wonder if it might be even older than that. It's definitely in great conditon for its age.

None of my kilts come close. But, I am a descendant of George Shepherd born about 1780 or so, in Scotland. One of these days, I'll find a Shepherd tartan kilt I can afford.

Nice picture, a superb looking kilt.
