Attributed to South Carolina statesman Charles Gadsden, it was used as a flag by the early colonial navy. This knife features a 3″ clip point blade, 2.125″ sheepsfoot blade, and 2″ spey blade made of sturdy 440A Stainless Steel. The blades are housed in a bright yellow smooth bone handle depicting the iconic coiled rattlesnake and phrase “Don’t Tread On Me”. Bone is a natural handle material prone to cracking. therefore, some knives may have cracks near the pins or bolsters. Some handles hold dyed material differently.
