📜 The Origin of the “Sgian Dubh”
The Sgian Dubh (Gaelic for Black Knife) holds deep historical meaning:
-
The name likely comes from its dark appearance, with early handles carved from black bog wood and blades darkened by time and use.
-
Another tradition links its name to the “hidden” or secret knife, once concealed for protection.
To show friendship and peace, Highlanders began wearing it openly in the top of their stocking — a tradition that continues today.
The Sgian Dubh is not a weapon, but a symbol of trust, loyalty, and heritage — proudly worn with Highland dress.
