📜 The Story Behind the Sgian Dubh

The name Sgian Dubh means “Black Knife” in Gaelic — likely referring to its historically dark handle, often carved from black bog wood, and the natural darkening of the blade over time.
Another theory links the name to its once-concealed nature, leading to the Highland tradition of wearing it visibly in the stocking as a sign of friendship and goodwill.

Please note: The Sgian Dubh is not and should never be regarded as a weapon.
