THE ORIGIN OF THE "SGIAN DUBH"

The intriguing history of the Sgian Dubh, which translates from Gaelic to "Black Knife," is believed to stem from its dark aesthetics—early versions were often hand-carved from black bog wood, and the blades would darken over time through use and age. Another theory suggests that the name derives from the concealed nature of this weapon, leading to the tradition of wearing the Sgian Dubh visibly atop the stocking while donning Highland attire, signaling to others that its bearer is among friends and harbors no malicious intent. It is important to note that the Sgian Dubh should not be regarded as a weapon.
