Dress your Highland kit with a ceremonial blade that honors your lineage.

⚔️ Traditional Form, Modern Craft

A classic black-handled Sgian Dubh with a stainless steel blade and nickel-silver plated fittings—equal parts heritage and refinement.

🛡️ Your Clan, Front & Center

Choose your Clan crest in lead-free pewter or fine sterling silver, framed by the timeless belt-and-buckle motif with your motto in raised relief. Crest diameter: 11/16" (19.5 mm).

💎 Finishing Touches

Top it off with your choice of synthetic stones: imitation topaz, sapphire blue, or emerald green—a subtle flash of color that complements any tartan.

📏 Sized for Dress Wear

Overall length 7½" (190 mm) · Width 1⅜" (35 mm). Balanced proportions that sit neatly at the top of your stocking.

🧰 Materials & Build

Resin handle and sheath with plated fittings for durability and value. Prefer museum-grade authenticity? Note that antique Sgian Dubhs with sterling fittings often exceed $1,000—we can advise if you’re seeking one.

🏛️ Tradition, Not a Weapon

Sgian Dubh means “Black Knife” in Gaelic—likely from early bog-wood handles and darkened blades. Worn visibly at the stocking top, it signals openness among friends—a ceremonial accessory, not a weapon.
