Medieval Scottish Gaelic Sgain Dubhs Celtic Traditional Highland Dagger Knife SI16228S-GK4
The Gaelic Sgain Dubhs has been around for centuries and it is worn
as part of a traditional Scottish Highland dress along with the kilt.
It is worn tucked into the top of the kilt hose with only the upper
portion of the hilt visible. The sgian-dubh is normally worn on the
right leg, but can also be worn on the left, depending on whether the
wearer is right or left-handed. The hilt is a gorgeous display of
Celtic knot-work, a twisting array of metallic lines that forms a
comfortable and entirely modern-looking grip for an old-world dagger.
The pommel is set with a red crystal, meant to imitate the valuable
cairngorm stones that older generations would use to decorate their
sgian dubh. The blade is stainless steel, with a full edge on one side
and a half-edge on the other and serration on the bottom of the
back-edge of the blade. Included is a small blood-groove to remove some
unnecessary weight from the blade.
