'The Officer' Sgian Dubh - Clan Crest from Scotweb Kilt & Tartan Store

The first recorded use of this type of utility knife was in the Crimean War and there is also recorded use in the Boer War. A number of variations were seen during the First World War but use died out thereafter. Because of the cost and complexity of manufacture it was always a gentleman's accessory. The original had a corkscrew and screwdriver both of which are faithfully reproduced here and we have added a bottle opener as an added feature for modern use.

Scotweb’s MD, Dr Nicholas J Fiddes, has written a free illustrated e-book, as a gift to help kilt lovers everywhere. In simple non-technical language it covers every aspect of buying a kilt, choosing your tartan, and accessorising an outfit for every occasion.

As a Governor of the Scottish Tartans Authority, and founder of the world’s first company to market kilts on the Internet (yes, Scotweb) no one is better qualified to offer such advice. Impartial and objective, this is a personal work and is not a Scotweb publication.
