Elevate your Scottish attire with our exquisite Scottish Clan Crest Sgian Dubh, a traditional black-handled knife adorned with your Clan crest in lead-free pewter or fine sterling silver.

This brand-new Sgian Dubh measures 7-1/2” in length by 1-3/8” in width, featuring a stainless steel blade and nickel silver plated fittings. The top is embellished with an imitation topaz, sapphire blue, or emerald green synthetic stone for added elegance.

Each Sgian Dubh is meticulously handcrafted with intricate detail, featuring your Clan crest surrounded by a detailed belt and buckle design, along with your Clan motto inscribed in raised relief lettering. In ancient times, the Clan chief presented his crest to his clansmen as a symbol of loyalty and Clan affiliation.

Please note that while this item is made to order, it typically takes only a few days to complete. Every Clan is available, and you can specify your Clan name in the comment area when placing your order. The handle and sheath are made of resin material, while the fittings are plated. While this Sgian Dubh is of excellent quality, it is considered an economy model compared to genuine old ones with sterling silver fittings, which can fetch over $1,000.00.

The name "Sgian Dubh" is derived from Gaelic, meaning "Black Knife," possibly due to its dark appearance from early handles carved from black bog wood and blades darkened through use and age. Another theory suggests its name originated from the easily concealed nature of the weapon, though it is traditionally worn in the top of the stocking in Highland attire to signify goodwill and non-aggression.

Our company boasts over forty years of experience in the Scottish Clan crest business, now serving the descendants of our original customers with the same dedication to quality and tradition. Honor your heritage with our Scottish Clan Crest Sgian Dubh—a timeless symbol of Scottish pride and tradition.
