Historical Significance of the Sgian Dubh

The name Sgian Dubh, translating to “Black Knife” in Gaelic, is believed to originate from:

• Its dark appearance: Early handles were often carved from black bog wood, while blades darkened naturally over time.

• Its discreet nature: Traditionally carried concealed, the Sgian Dubh came to be worn visibly atop the stocking in Highland dress to show peaceful intent among friends.

⚠️ Important Note: The Sgian Dubh is a ceremonial accessory, not intended or regarded as a weapon.
