The dirk is actually kept in the sock. We've got much larger weapons under our kilts :wink:

 

[Lord David the Denied]

Isn't that the Sgian Dugh that lives in the sock? I thought the drk was worn on the belt?

 

[Iain McGhee]

Yes. I just thought that Reaverman was confusing the two and didn't feel the need to correct him (or his spelling of sporran).

And it worked better for my joke.

 

[Lord David the Denied]

That was a joke...? :?

:wink:

 

[Wing Commander]

The Dirk was the large dagger / small sword that was traditionally worn alongside the broadsword and tarn (shield). They would fight with the sword in one hand and the shield strapped to the other wrist with the Dirk (swing, parry, slash!).
The Skean Dhu was the tip of the dirk, when it was outlawed they were still allowed to carry a small knife so they simply broke the tip off, put a handle on it and stuck it in their sock.

Yes. I just thought that Reaverman was confusing the two and didn't feel the need to correct him (or his spelling of sporran).

I will not tolerate descent in the colonies :twisted:

You Scots better behave or i may have to ring Mr Chang :roll:

Yeah, that too!

Without descent, how are they going to get down from the Highlands?

Unless they are using an Esher drawing as their means of transport

 

[Lord David the Denied]

That drawing was actually a print... a woodcut or lithograph, if memory serves... :wink:

Print, drawing, etching...who cares

Escher would have... :lol:

Sounds about right for that crazy old bugger...
