Historically, handles were carved from black bog wood, and the blades darkened with age and use. Another theory suggests that the name reflects the weapon's easily concealed nature, which is why it is traditionally worn in the stocking, displayed openly to signify friendship and goodwill. Importantly, the Sgian Dubh is not intended to be viewed as a weapon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith over forty years of experience in the Scottish Clan crest industry, our company is proud to provide Clan jewelry that resonates with the children and grandchildren of our original customers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Celtic Empire","offers":[{"title":"Pewter Crest \/ Yellow Stone","offer_id":49370025165099,"sku":null,"price":70.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pewter Crest \/ Blue Stone","offer_id":49370025197867,"sku":null,"price":70.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pewter Crest \/ Green Stone","offer_id":49370025230635,"sku":null,"price":70.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver Crest \/ Yellow Stone","offer_id":49370025263403,"sku":null,"price":88.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver Crest \/ Blue Stone","offer_id":49370025296171,"sku":null,"price":88.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver Crest \/ Green Stone","offer_id":49370025328939,"sku":null,"price":88.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/6141\/3931\/files\/19_f34ad6ed-1815-4301-936e-b582007000a5.jpg?v=1755689545","url":"https:\/\/celticempire.com\/products\/graham-montrose-clan-crest-sgian-dubh-scottish-knife","provider":"Celtic Empire","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
