Sgian Dubh, Skean Dhu, whatever

I want a real one. Not the potmetal kind they sell everywhere, and not a modern interpretation of one like Cold Steel's versions. Who makes the best ones?

Any custom makers here that make em?

You could try these folks:

Thought you might like the Bog Oak handle.

These folks also make 'em:

Although I don't know his work, Jim Young makes 'em:

I just ordered one from the guys at http://www.scottishsgiandubhs.com/
I'll give a report when it shows up. I thought I was doing pretty well, but I can't quite afford the Bog Oak one. Now where's that "drooling" icon?

I got one many moons ago from Dennis @ Double Edge Forge: http://www.bright.net/~deforge1/Knives.html
His work is as close as a true original would be. Not dressy at all- just 100% knife.
