📖 The Origin of the “Sgian Dubh”

The name Sgian Dubh (Gaelic for Black Knife) is thought to come from its dark appearance — early handles were hand-carved from black bog wood, and the blade darkened through age and use.

Another legend holds that it was once a hidden knife for protection. Today, tradition dictates that it be worn openly in the stocking top, symbolizing that the wearer comes in friendship and peace.

⚠️ The Sgian Dubh is a ceremonial item, not a weapon.
