Historical Context:
The term "Sgian Dubh" translates to "Black Knife" in Gaelic. Its name is believed to derive from the dark appearance of early handles, which were often crafted from black bog wood, or from its role as a concealed weapon. Traditionally worn at the top of the stocking in Highland attire, the Sgian Dubh symbolizes that its wearer is among friends and harbors no ill intent. It is important to note that the Sgian Dubh is a ceremonial item rather than a weapon.
