    Strange Dirk & Other Knife You Tube Video

    Okay I found this video on You Tube have watched it three times now. I find it kind of strange but kind of interesting at the same time. I was keen to hear what you guys think of think of it.

    So at first it looks like footage taken by some tourist in a shop in the Royal mile . But the second part of the video is footage of the dirk be constructed and plans. Note the video is tagged at Edinburgh castle which seems a tad off.

    Channel is called "дмитрий кузнецов" and is the only video that has been uploaded. So I say nice work on both the knifes and the sporran.

    I am not sure about small knife seems too big for a sgian-dubh and has a belt sheath with a frog. Perhaps it is meant to be a sgian-dearg not a sgian-dubh? Some kind of clan crest on the dirk,Fraser maybe?

    Video is very short on any kind of info and more of a personal record than anything else. I am guessing a Greek knifemaker made this for a local Scot? He shows some good crafting skills but rather poor film making skills.
