No more carrying a dirk in the sock?

A dirk's a rather large thing to carry in a sock! You're thinking of the sgian dubh (lit: "black knife"), the stocking knife.

Now I'm wondering exactly what Drill Sgt. McCracken meant when he'd flip on the lights at 0 dark thirty and yell "Awright, put it in yer sock, on yer feet, let's go!"
