Scottish Clan Crest Sgian Dubh – Handcrafted for All Clans

Celebrate your Scottish heritage with the Clan Crest Sgian Dubh, a traditional Highland dress accessory that combines historical symbolism with elegant craftsmanship. Available with your Clan crest in lead-free pewter or sterling silver, this Sgian Dubh is a refined statement piece for any formal Scottish attire.

Elegant Design and Dimensions

The Sgian Dubh features a striking black handle, nickel silver-plated fittings, and your choice of synthetic stone at the top:

• Stone options: Imitation topaz, sapphire blue, or emerald green

• Overall length: 7-1/2" (190 mm)

• Width: 1-3/8" (35 mm)

• Clan crest size: 11/16" (19.5 mm) diameter

The Clan crest is encircled by the belt and buckle motif, featuring your Clan motto in raised relief lettering.

Craftsmanship and Materials

Each Sgian Dubh is handcrafted by a skilled Scottish artisan. While the handle and sheath are crafted from durable resin and the fittings are plated, this makes it an affordable and elegant alternative to antique all-silver models, which can exceed $1,000.

The Tradition of the Sgian Dubh

The term Sgian Dubh means “Black Knife” in Gaelic, referencing its dark appearance—historically made from black bog wood—or its concealed nature. Worn visibly in the Highland stocking, it signifies friendship and peaceful intent.

Available for All Scottish Clans

We proudly offer the Sgian Dubh for all Scottish Clans. Include your Clan name when ordering to receive your custom piece. Most orders ship within a few days.

The Clan Crest Sgian Dubh is more than an accessory—it’s a symbol of heritage and tradition, handcrafted to honor your lineage.
