Hi Folks
A Sgian Dubh 'Scavaig' fresh off the workbench...
My take on a traditional Scottish Sgian Dubh - the 'Scavaig'. This rustic beauty has been crafted with a copper bolster that is solid (not a ferrule) and a stabilized Black Palm handle centre. The Pommel is stabilized Hornbeam with a fine mosaic pin. This traditional blade also features filework on the spine and a copper main pin in the handle. The sheath is also 100% handmade in-house with saddle stitching and toolwork.
- Blade thickness: 3.7mm (0.145")
- Blade length: 98mm (3.86")
- Overall length: 200mm (7.9")
- Weight without sheath: 130g 4.7oz
- Weight with sheath: 154g 5.5oz
- Handle material: Copper bolster, stabilized Black Palm with stabilized Hornbeam pommel.
- Fittings: Mosaic pin in pommel and copper main pin.
- Traditional hidden tang design. Comes with a custom fitted sheath as seen.
