Vintage Jefferson Spivey Sabertooth Knife ST-175
The knife is called Sabertooth. I invented it during a horseback journey from ocean to ocean in 1968. That ride took seven months and covered 4000 miles through all the seasons. Necessity made me realize the kind of knife I need.160 thickness, 12 ¾ inches long, a 7 ½ inch flat-ground blade, the Sabertooth is perfectly suited for wilderness survival. The on a sloping 5 ¼ inch double row of biangular teeth on the spine is the most effective saw on a knife ever designed.”
The first Sabertooth appeared on the cover of Gun World Magazine in 1969. In 1976, the National Cowboy Hall of Fame commissioned a limited edition series of the patented Sabertooth knife. The Sabertooth has been featured in museums such as Randall Knife Museum and The National Cowboy Hall of Fame.
