Crawford Family Clan Crest Sgian Dubh, Scottish Knife

Elevate your Highland 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.

Crafted with precision, this brand-new Sgian Dubh boasts a length of 7-1/2” and a width of 1-3/8”, featuring a durable stainless steel blade and nickel silver-plated fittings. At the top, an imitation topaz, sapphire blue, or emerald green synthetic stone adds a touch of elegance.

The Clan crest takes center stage, encased in a detailed belt and buckle design, with your clan motto inscribed in raised relief lettering. Historically, Clan chiefs bestowed their crest upon their clansmen as a symbol of loyalty and affiliation, a tradition upheld in this meticulously crafted piece.

Each Sgian Dubh is handcrafted to perfection, with the Clan crest measuring 11/16" (19.5mm) in diameter. While this item is made to order, rest assured it takes only a few days to complete. Simply specify your Clan name in the comment area when placing your order.

It's worth noting that while this Sgian Dubh is crafted with high-quality materials, including sterling silver, the handle and sheath are made from resin, with plated fittings. A genuine antique Sgian Dubh with sterling silver fittings can command prices upwards of $1,000.

The name "Sgian Dubh," Gaelic for Black Knife, is rooted in its dark appearance, stemming from early handles carved from black bog wood. Another theory suggests its name reflects its concealed nature, though it's traditionally worn openly in the top of the stocking to signify goodwill among friends.

With over forty years in the Scottish Clan crest business, we take pride in creating timeless pieces that honor your heritage. As we continue to serve generations of customers, our commitment to quality and craftsmanship remains unwavering.
