Sgian Dubh knife with Damascus steel blade and sheath
"Sgian Dubh" is a small Hand-forged Scottish dagger with a decorated ebony handle. This traditional blade, also called a "sock dagger", is loaded into the right sock so that only the top of the cable can be seen. It was originally used for ceremonial purposes. The Sgian Dubh was part of the basic equipment of every Highland Scotsman since the 18th century.
