Scottish Borders Skean Dhu

Sorry, this product is no longer available.
Thistle Skean-dhu or sgian-dhu.

 

This is a handsome Skean Dhu - Sgian Dubh and would make a wonderful Scottish gift for a Groom, Best Man, Usher or Father of the Bride or Groom.

A vivid synthetic amber stone enhances the crown of this handsome, highly polished, steel dagger. This has sharp point and a nice edge and is definitely not a "stage prop" and adds just the right upgrade to your Highland outfit.

Not intended for children!
