You've reached the limit of my knowledge of Gaelic, but going from Nathan's Wikipedia quote above...
The plural is most commonly sgian-dubhs (in its various spellings) but sgians-dubh is also occasionally encountered. The proper Gaelic plural forms sg(e)inean-dubh or sgianan-dubh are only rarely encountered in English usage.
