I received my Rusty sgian dubh yesterday. Very nice design, especially the handle. I tucked the scabbard and knife into my waistband in crossdraw position with the flat part of the handle next to my stomach it was very comfortable in that position and easily accessible. The knife comes out of the scabbard without a sound and fits my small hand perfectly. The ballance point of the knife is just about where the knife and handle meet. I was able to transition from sabre to reverse grip and back effortlessly due to the excellent ballance of the knife. The materials that the knife are made out of are top notch and the workmanship is very good, the jimping on the spine is very presise. The scabbard is well made but it is way to loose to hold the knife securely. The knife came rather dull but it should be pretty easy to sharpen. With the addition of a new scabbard my new Rusty sgian dubh should make a great hideout/concealed knife due to the fact that it has no guard to get caught on clothing when it is drawn. I will definitely buy more of these as they come on to the market. And last but not least, Yangdu was a pleasure to do business with.
