SCOTTISH CLAN CREST SGIAN DUBH
Classic black-hilt knife with your Clan crest—made for Highland dress, not for combat.
🛡️ Your Clan, Your Crest
Choose a lead-free pewter or fine sterling silver crest, framed by a detailed belt-and-buckle motif with your Clan motto in raised relief. The crest measures 11/16" (19.5 mm) and is hand-finished with crisp detail.
🔪 Traditional Look, Everyday Durable
Overall length 7½" (190 mm), width 1⅜" (35 mm). A stainless steel blade pairs with nickel silver–plated fittings. The black handle and sheath are tough resin—a smart, low-maintenance choice for regular wear.
💎 Pick Your Pommel Stone
Top off your Sgian Dubh with one of three vivid synthetic stones: imitation topaz, sapphire blue, or emerald green. Select your color at checkout.
👨👩👧👦 Every Clan Available—Made to Order
We support all Clans. Add your Clan name in the order comments. Each piece is custom-made and typically ships in a few days.
💷 Economy Alternative, Heritage Style
Enjoy the ceremonial look without the antique price tag—historical examples with solid sterling fittings can exceed $1,000. This model offers exceptional value for dress use.
📜 A Note on Tradition
Worn at the top of the stocking with Highland attire, the Sgian Dubh (“black knife”) takes its name from dark materials like bog wood and the blade’s aged patina—or from its once-concealed nature. Today it’s a ceremonial accessory, not a weapon.
