📜 The Origin of the “Sgian Dubh”

The term Sgian Dubh (pronounced skee-an doo) means “Black Knife” in Gaelic. Its origins are linked to:

• The dark wood handles once carved from black bog oak

• The concealed nature of the blade in earlier times
  Traditionally, it is worn visibly in the hose (kilt stocking) to show peaceful intent and that the wearer is among friends.

🛑 Important: The Sgian Dubh is not a weapon, but a ceremonial accessory and symbol of honor in Highland attire.
