⚔️ The Origin of the “Sgian Dubh”

The name Sgian Dubh (Gaelic for “Black Knife”) has deep historical roots:

  • Early knives featured handles carved from dark bog wood, darkened further by time and use.

  • Others believe the name refers to the concealed nature of the knife — once carried discreetly for protection.

Today, tradition dictates that the Sgian Dubh be worn openly in the stocking, symbolizing friendship and peace — a visible sign that its wearer has no ill intent.

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