'The Officer' Sgian Dubh - Symbol Crest

About


£100.18

Description

The first recorded use of this type of utility knife was in the Crimean War and there is also recorded use in the Boer War. A number of variations were seen during the First World War but use died out thereafter. Because of the cost and complexity of manufacture it was always a gentleman's accessory. The original had a corkscrew and screwdriver both of which are faithfully reproduced here and we have added a bottle opener as an added feature for modern use.

How do I buy items from this site?

We try to make our site easy to use, even for a complex purchase like a kilt outfit. No membership is necessary. And we deliver worldwide.

The basic process is explained below. But if you find it hard for any reason, just contact us and we will be happy to either advise you or else place your order for you. (Calls from the UK or North America are free!)

We divide the buying process into two main stages:

1. Select products & Add to Basket

  • Find your product
  • Optional: specify fabric, sizes, etc.(Choose Options button, top right)
  • Add item to your Basket (Add to Basket button, top right)
  • (Repeat, to add more items)
  • Adjust quantities in Shopping Basket (if required)



2. From Basket, proceed to Check Out

  • Specify Payment details
  • Confirm



You will find much more help with how to navigate our site, how to choose products, about our customer services, and much more in our fully searchable Information Centre which is linked at the top of every page.



I need more advice - how can I get help?

We have three main ways of giving you extra information:

1. all around our site you’ll see little ‘info’ icons (like this: Scotweb information icon ) with help relevant to the place you see it; clicking one will normally pop up a help box, keeping you on the same page;

2. we have a large, fully searchable, Information Centre, linked at the top of every page, covering product advice, customer services, site navigation, and much more; try searching for the topic of your query (e.g. “returns”).

3. our customer service team is only an email or phone call away, and we even have toll-free lines from the UK and North America; so don’t hesitate to contact us, however trivial or complex your query.

Where can I find more in-depth information about kilts & tartans?

Kilts and Tartan Made EasyScotweb’s MD, Dr Nicholas J Fiddes, has written a free illustrated e-book, as a gift to help kilt lovers everywhere. In simple non-technical language it covers every aspect of buying a kilt, choosing your tartan, and accessorising an outfit for every occasion.

As a Governor of the Scottish Tartans Authority, and founder of the world’s first company to market kilts on the Internet (yes, Scotweb) no one is better qualified to offer such advice. Impartial and objective, this is a personal work and is not a Scotweb publication.

Wrote... My first Sgian Dubh was what I suppose is THE classical item anyone who buys a kilt for the first time acquire. A simple ceremonial Sgian Dubh with black plastic handle, a dull blade, a stone and one`s clan crest embedded. Ok, but boring :-) But when I got hold of the 'The Officer' Sgian Dubh, I suddenly felt as if I actually own a small "weapon" :-) A part from the solid feel of the handle and the blade, it gives a nice historical feel.
