Featuring your Clan crest, this stunning Sgian Dubh, or traditional Scottish black-handled knife, can be adorned with lead-free pewter or fine sterling silver. All Clan options are offered. As our premium Sgian Dubh, it is beautifully constructed, with the handle and sheath made from durable resin and enhanced with plated metal fittings. Unlike antique sgian dubhs with sterling silver fittings that can exceed $1,000.00, our version is available at a far more accessible price—just inquire for details.

The Clan crest is elegantly encircled by a detailed belt and buckle motif, with your clan motto inscribed in raised relief lettering. Each piece is meticulously handcrafted in sterling silver, with the Clan Crest measuring 11/16" (19.5 mm) in diameter. Historically, the Clan chief would present his crest to clansmen, symbolizing their loyalty and connection to the Clan.

Kindly note that this item is made to order, requiring a few days for creation. We can accommodate all Clans.

THE ORIGIN OF THE "SGIAN DUBH"

The term Sgian Dubh, which translates to "Black Knife" in Gaelic, is believed to have originated from the knife's dark aesthetic—historically, handles were often carved from black bog wood, and the blades darkened with use and age. Another theory suggests that the name reflects the sinister nature of a concealed weapon, which is why tradition dictates that the Sgian Dubh be displayed openly at the top of the stocking when wearing Highland attire, signaling friendship and goodwill.

Importantly, the Sgian Dubh should not be classified as a weapon!
