Delve into the origins of the "Sgian Dubh," Gaelic for "Black Knife," thought to derive from its dark appearance, often carved from black bog wood, with blades darkened through use and age. Alternatively, its name may stem from the concealed nature of the weapon, with tradition dictating its visible placement in the stocking while wearing Highland attire, symbolizing friendship and goodwill.

With over forty years of expertise in the Scottish Clan crest business, we take pride in crafting Clan jewelry that spans generations, now catering to the children and grandchildren of our esteemed clientele.
