📜 The Origin of the Sgian Dubh

The term “Sgian Dubh” (Gaelic for Black Knife) is thought to derive from its early dark wood handles and aged blades.
Another theory links its name to its concealed nature, which is why today the Sgian Dubh is traditionally worn openly in the kilt hose, signifying trust and friendship among companions.

The Sgian Dubh is not a weapon, but a ceremonial symbol of honor, heritage, and friendship.
