Scottish Highland Dirks
We can only supply Dirks for 'Domestic Use'
due to recent changes in legislation.
For example, we can supply a cutting / carving knife for Wedding Cakes, Burn's Nights, Hog Roasts, etc.

It truly is a work of art which we shall treasure"

'I found Rainnea on the internet by searching for 'custom sgian dubh's', my original sgian dubh had been confiscated at a Spanish Airport when we were returning from a wedding and I was keen to get something unique. My grandfathers had both fought in World War II and one of them was stationed in the Far East for part of it and had fought alongside the Gurkhas and I was fascinated by the efficiency of their Khukuri blades and their commitment to us, a foreign country. I wanted something that was uniquely Scottish whilst also remembering those who gave their all for our country and came up with the Sgian Khukuri idea. Once I'd passed this by Rab at Loch Ness Origins he was able to take my ideas and harness the local natural materials, and his own considerable skills, and produce a beautiful piece, exactly as I wanted it.'
