⚔️ The Origin of the “Sgian Dubh”

The name Sgian Dubh means “Black Knife” in Gaelic — believed to have originated from its dark handle, often carved from black bog wood, and from its concealed nature.

Traditionally, Highlanders wore this small knife tucked in the top of the stocking to show friendship and peaceful intent when visiting others.

The Sgian Dubh is not a weapon, but a symbol of trust, heritage, and ceremony — a proud emblem of Scottish culture.
