How's everyone getting on those fine may morning? I just wanted to ask what is everyones view on kilts? I've a gala ball coming up soon and I think I may buyou a kilt for it, I know the kilt is Scottish butility I also believe it is Irish too and I haven't asked Professor Google on this.
But I myself although I'm Irish I'm also a Celt and the Kilt is definitely Celtic. Any way I think it would look Effing fantastic so I think I just may, I'm probably opening a can of worms here but what's everyone's thoughts, views and dare I say it opinions?? Lol much love xx  |

Don't like them lol
be way cheaper to rent , if you looking for quality kilt and whole outfit shirt , jacket , brogues , socks etc it's a pretty penny.
If going to, i would invest in family tartan check your name to see if one is available , will make a nice conversation peice to tell history of it to the ladies lol |

Unfortunately I don't have a tartan but I've seen some lovely quality pieces second hand one eBay etcetera with the full regalia so I'm thinking of going down that route so I'll always have it for another time the likes of weddings and so on. What do you call the daggers for the socks?  |

The knife is called a sgian dubh.. In this country it would be spelt scian dubh, pronounced skeean doo.
Scian is Gaeilge for knife.
Dubh is black but in this case means something like concealed or secret? |

That's right I remember now, the hidden knife. Thanks Michael. |

I have rented them and your talk €300 for a night plus a deposit and to be honest they are uncomfortable and you get sick of everyone asking to see your bits |
