The History of the Sgian Dubh
The name Sgian Dubh translates from Gaelic as “Black Knife”. Traditionally, its dark handle was carved from black bog wood, and the blade darkened over time. Another origin story attributes the name to the knife’s concealed nature, worn discreetly but displayed openly in the stocking during Highland dress to show goodwill.

Today, the Sgian Dubh is a symbol of Scottish culture and heritage, not a weapon. It remains an integral part of traditional Highland attire, representing friendship, tradition, and craftsmanship.

With over 43 years of expertise in the Scottish Clan crest industry, we are proud to create heirloom-quality Clan pieces for generations of families.
