Peak of the knife
Sgùrr na Sgine, meaning "Peak of the Knife," is a sharp, prominent peak in the Scottish Highlands, likely under 1,000 meters in height. Its name suggests a rugged, possibly steep-sided form, typical of the region's ancient, eroded granite and gneiss landscapes. The name may also hint at historical or folklore associations with conflict or boundary markers in the area.
