THE ORIGIN OF THE "SGIAN DUBH"
The term Sgian Dubh, translating to "Black Knife" in Gaelic, is believed to have originated from the knife's dark aesthetic—early handles were often hand-carved from black bog wood, and the blades would darken with use and age. Another theory suggests that the name stems from the concealed nature of this weapon, which is why it is traditionally displayed on top of the stocking while wearing Highland attire, indicating the wearer's friendly intentions.
It is important to emphasize that the Sgian Dubh was never intended to be considered a weapon, nor should it be viewed as such.
With over 43 years of experience in the Scottish Clan crest industry, our company is proud to create Clan jewelry for the children and grandchildren of our original customers.
