The name "Sgian Dubh" translates to "Black Knife" in Gaelic, possibly stemming from the dark appearance of early handles crafted from black bog wood and the aging of blades. Alternatively, its name may allude to its concealed nature as a weapon, though it is traditionally worn openly in the top of the stocking to signify goodwill and camaraderie.
