    Beautiful New Sgian Dubh

    I Just received a beautiful handmade Sgian Dubh from Rab Gordon of http://www.rainnea.com



    The handle is hand carved ebony, the ferrule is hallmarked sterling silver and the blade is Damascus steel. I am really delighted with this sgian!

    Rab does custom work with a few months wait. He also keeps a few sgians in stock for immediate sale. He also makes "Sgian Brews" (bottle opener instead of blade) and I've ordered one of those to match this knife.
