Traditionally, handles were handcrafted from black bog wood, and blades would darken over time through use and wear. Another theory suggests that the name references its concealed nature—hence the custom of displaying the Sgian Dubh above the stocking while wearing Highland attire, signifying friendship and goodwill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is essential to emphasize that the Sgian Dubh should never be regarded as a weapon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith over 43 years of experience in the Scottish Clan crest industry, our company has proudly created Clan jewelry for the children and grandchildren of our very first customers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Celtic Empire","offers":[{"title":"Pewter \/ Blue","offer_id":49371432157483,"sku":null,"price":140.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pewter \/ Green","offer_id":49371432190251,"sku":null,"price":140.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pewter \/ Amethyst","offer_id":49371432223019,"sku":null,"price":140.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sterling Silver \/ Blue","offer_id":49371432255787,"sku":null,"price":158.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sterling Silver \/ Green","offer_id":49371432288555,"sku":null,"price":158.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sterling Silver \/ Amethyst","offer_id":49371432321323,"sku":null,"price":158.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/6141\/3931\/files\/41_4ab38796-9fb5-4063-9997-5ca596662d3c.jpg?v=1755688900","url":"https:\/\/celticempire.com\/products\/irvine-bonshaw-interlace-clan-crest-sgian-dubh-scottish-knife","provider":"Celtic Empire","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
