Hi Folks
Here is the last of the Sgian Dubh Kilbegs... this one with a terracotta colored liner...
A modern version of the traditional Scottish Sgian Dubh - the 'Kilbeg'. This curvaceous wee knife has been crafted with a full tang where the steel in the handle forms the profile. The blade is in K110 (D2) high-alloy steel with a stonewash finish. It has a Bog Oak (between 2000 and 5000 years old) handle with fibre liners and brass pins. The sheath is also 100% handmade in-house with saddle stitching and some toolwork.
This Sgian Dubh make use of high quality materials sourced from around the world and is hand crafted with a superb fit and finish. It is completely functional (sharp!) and built to last. If looked after, it will easily provide a lifetime of use and you'll be able to proudly pass it on for future generations to enjoy.
- Blade thickness: 3.5mm (0.145")
- Blade length: 97mm (3.85")
- Overall length: 206mm (7.9")
- Weight without sheath: 142g (5oz)
- Weight with sheath: 170g (6oz)
- Handle material: Bog Oak with vulcanized fibre liner
- Fittings: Brass pins
- Full tang design that comes with a custom fitted leather sheath as seen.
