Crichton Family Clan Crest Sgian Dubh, Scottish Knife

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

This brand new Sgian Dubh measures 7-1/2” long by 1-3/8” wide, featuring a 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.

Each Sgian Dubh is meticulously handcrafted with intricate detail, showcasing your Clan crest surrounded by a detailed belt and buckle design, 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 affiliation.

While this item is made to order, production typically takes just a few days. Every Clan is available, simply specify your Clan name in the comment area when placing your order.

Please note, the handle and sheath are crafted from resin material, while the fittings are plated. While our Sgian Dubh is a high-quality economy model, a "genuine" old Sgian Dubh with sterling silver fittings can fetch over $1,000.00.

The name "Sgian Dubh," Gaelic for Black Knife, likely originated from the knife's dark appearance, with early handles often carved from black bog wood. Alternatively, it may stem from the knife's concealed nature, symbolizing friendship and benign intent when worn openly in Highland attire.

With over forty years of experience in the Scottish Clan crest business, we continue to craft Clan jewelry for the descendants of our original customers, ensuring tradition and heritage endure for generations to come.
