Sgian Dhub is Gaelic for black (dhub) dagger (sgian), as invariably
the handle was carved from black bog oak, and more subtly, as the
word "black" meant secret or covert as in "blackmarket"; most appropriate
for this weapon of last resort which was usually concealed, only
to be exhibited in the presence of a host outof courtesy, and thus
placed in the wearer's hose (sock) where it could be seen. This
Sgian Dhub conforms to the Traditional Regimental pattern, and comes
in a gift box.
