A Sgian Dubh, pronounced as “skee-an-doo” is a decorative knife typically worn as part of the Highland dress, tucked into the top of the kilt hose. Historically it originated as a personal defence knife but by the 18th century it became part of the formal attire, often designed with decorative handles. Today, it is a ceremonial item, symbolising Scottish heritage and often worn during formal occasions.

The Glenfinnan Stag Sgian Dubh is a masterpiece of Scottish craftmanship that perfectly combines tradition, elegance and subtlety. Featuring a majestic stag head design, this Sgian Dubh is a tribute to the natural beauty and nobility of the Highlands, where the stag reigns as a symbol of strength and heritage.

What sets this piece apart is its subtle Celtic knotwork, delicately engraved into the handle. The intricate knots are a timeless nod to Scotland’s ancient artistry, giving a overall design for a refined, understated look. The detail is there to be admired, without overpowering the natural beauty of the piece.

Crafted with high- quality materials including a stainless steel blade, it feels as good in the hand as it looks! Whether worn at a wedding or simply as a statement of Scottish pride, this Sgian Dubh exudes class and tradition.
