This sgian-dubh features a beautifully patterned Damascus steel blade, known for its beauty and durability. Paired with hand carved Wenge twist handle and features a Damascus butt cap and bolster.
Traditionally worn as part of Scottish Highland dress, the sgian-dubh is used for utility purposes. The carved Wenge twist handle offers a natural, comfortable grip, and it comes with a protective sheath for safe carrying. Combining traditional design with premium materials, this sgian-dubh is perfect for practical use or as a collector's item.
~*This blade does not come sharpened ~* because it serves as a decorative accessory rather than a functional tool.
Keeping the blade dull ensures safety during public events and gatherings, while still honouring the cultural and historical significance of the item.
That being said, the steel is hardened and can hold an edge if desired.
*Complementary laser engraving is offered on all our blades, contact us after purchase to arrange*
