Vintage Pat Crawford Custom Sub-Bowie Boot/Belt Knife – Genuine Ivory Scales

An exceptional example of early custom craftsmanship from Knifemakers’ Guild legend Pat Crawford. This compact Sub-Bowie/Fighter style fixed blade flawlessly pairs tactical design with high-end, classic materials. Measuring 8.25″ overall with a razor-sharp 4″ hollow-ground clip point blade, it features a striking, flawless mirror-polished finish. The obverse ricasso is stamped with Crawford’s iconic early “CRAWFORD” block-letter mark.

The handle features beautifully aged, genuine ivory scales secured to a full tapered tang with four pins, subtly accented by thin red liners that give the profile an extra pop of color. A flawless brass double guard provides an elegant transition from handle to blade while ensuring a solid grip. The knife comes paired with its original, heavy-duty black leather slip sheath, showing an honest, vintage patina that matches the history of the blade.
