Actually no, the knife worn in the hose was a sign of peaceful intentions.. No hidden weapons.. I am not so sure about wearing it on the inside of the leg, But I am sure our experts can give a more proper explaination. Which is why I enjoy this site... The expertise is abounding and the history behind the story is great learning.

I've never heard this before, and I've never seen anyone wearing their sgian dubh on the inside of the leg. I think this is more myth than anything else.
Yeah, this is new to me as well. I would not thing that the Sgian on the inside of the leg would be very useful, however (I can see tripping myself as I reached for it.)
"A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon
