Sgian Dubh 'Scavaig' - Brass, Camelthorn and Katalox
My take on a traditional Scottish Sgian Dubh - the 'Scavaig'. This one has been crafted with a brass bolster that is solid (not a furrule), an oiled Camelthorn handle centre and a pommel in Katalox. The handle pin has been peined, domed and polished to a satin finish with detailed filework on the spine. The sheath is also 100% handmade with saddle stitching and embossing.
