In the summer of 1876, the dusty trails of Wyoming were alive with the echoes of hooves and the crack of revolvers. It was the era of outlaws, gold rushes, and lawmen chasing shadows. Among the most infamous figures was Clayton "Red" Harlow, a gunslinger with a reputation for being as quick with his blade as he was with his trigger finger.
Red’s story took a dramatic turn during a botched bank heist in Cheyenne. Cornered by a posse, Red found himself stranded in the rugged wilderness with nothing but his wits and his trusty belt knife. Forged from rasp tool steel, the knife was a gift from his father, a railroad worker who believed a good blade could save a man’s life.
Over the next two weeks, Red used the knife to survive. He skinned rabbits for food, carved traps to catch fish, and even fashioned a makeshift shelter from pine branches. When the posse finally caught up to him, Red’s knife became his last line of defense. In a desperate fight, he managed to escape, leaving behind only his hat and a legend that would be told around campfires for decades.
Today, we honor Red’s legacy with this handcrafted cowboy belt knife. Designed for those who value durability and style, it’s a tribute to the rugged spirit of the Wild West.
