George Devol

“I don’t know just how thick my old skull is, but I do know that it is pretty thick, or it would have been cracked many years ago, for I have been struck some terrible blows on my head with iron dray-pins, pokers, clubs, stone-coal, and bowlders, which would have split any man’s skull wide open unless it was pretty thick. Doctors have often told me that my skull was nearly an inch in thickness over my forehead.”

– George Devol, Forty Years a Gambler on the Mississippi

George H. Devol was the greatest riverboat gambler in the history of the Mississippi River. He was also a con artist, a fighter, and a master at manipulating men and their money.

Born on August 1, 1829, in Marietta, Ohio, George Devol was the youngest of six children. His father was a ship carpenter and was often away from home. Though Devol had good opportunities for early education, he didn’t like school and spent most of his time playing hooky. The unmanageable boy was also prone to fighting, coming home almost daily with scratches and bruises from his numerous scuffles. When a teacher attempted to discipline him with a hardy whipping, he would turn on them, hitting them with stones that he carried in his pocket. While his father was away building boats much of the time, his mother would be forced to call in a neighbor or passerby to help with his punishment.

Devol ran away at the age of ten, serving as a cabin boy on a riverboat steamer called the Wacousta .  Evidently, Devol did a good job in this capacity as he soon took a better-paying job on a boat called Walnut Hills .

Another boat came soon after – the Cicero , where Devol learned to play “Seven-Up” and the art of bluffing. Seeing the high lifestyle of the professional gamblers on the boat, Devol was determined to follow in their footsteps, and by the time he was in his teens, he could deal seconds, palm cards, and recover the cut.

Fighting would continue to be a natural part of his life, and he soon developed skills with a gun, never hesitating to pull it.

By the time the Mexican War broke out, he was on a boat called the Tiago . Soon, Devol thought it a good idea to go to war and got a job as a barkeeper on the Corvette , bound for the Rio Grande and Mexico.

While aboard the Corvette, he met a man who taught him how to “stock a deck.” Upon reaching the Rio Grande and joining the forces, he quickly utilized his newly learned skills to swindle the other soldiers. But he grew bored with soldiering, and with his pockets filled with his ill-earned gains, he returned to New Orleans, although not for long.

At the tender age of 17, Devol’s pockets were filled with almost three thousand dollars as he headed back home to Ohio, laden with gifts for his family.

While back in Ohio, he mastered the games of Faro and Rondo.  Devol continued to hone his skills and made hundreds of thousands of dollars in the years before the Civil War .  Working the steamboats of the South, he joined in with other card sharps, including Canada Bill Jones , Bill Rollins, Big Alexander, and many others over the years.

Playing Faro

One trick that Devol liked to play was betting against ministers, who inevitably lost their meager wages to the professional gambler. However, Devol would always return their money, along with this advice: “Go and sin no more.” But to the many soldiers, paymasters, farmers, thieves, and businessmen, he was not so kind.

When the war was over, the railroads began to head west, with settlements sprouting up all along the way.  Many of these burgeoning towns, often filled with railroad workers, miners, and cowboys provided all manner of vices, including prostitution , numerous saloons , and the ever-present gambling halls. Supplying perfect opportunities for Devol’s operation, he followed the railroad expansion between Kansas City and Cheyenne in the early 1870s.

According to his account, Devol was working the Gold Room Saloon in Cheyenne when he encountered Wild Bill Hickok .  Devol tells the story that when Hickok placed a $50 bet, he lost.  He then placed another $50 bet, winning the hand that time; however, the dealer handed him back only $25.  When Wild Bill protested, the dealer stated that the house limit was $25. “But you took 50 when I lost,” said Hickok, to which the dealer responded, “Fifty goes when you lose.” The quick-tempered Hickok wasn’t about to accept those terms “sitting down” and quickly whacked the dealer on the head with his walking stick, turned over the table, and stuffed his pockets with the till.

On another occasion, when Devol was working the railroad route, he beat a railroad director out of $1,200.  This one-time winning game resulted in Devol’s profession being quickly curbed when the outraged official prohibited gambling on trains.  Further, the Pinkerton agency was hired to be on the lookout for the most notorious professional gamblers, including Devol.

In 1892, Devol published his autobiography, Forty Years a Gambler on the Mississippi , telling of his life and probably exaggerating much of it. Shortly after he published his book, the great days of railroad and riverboat gambling were over. At his new wife’s insistence, he retired from gambling for good in 1896 and spent the last years of his life selling his book.

It is estimated that Devol won over two million dollars in his forty years of gambling.  However, when he died in Hot Springs , Arkansas , in 1903, he was nearly penniless.

CRKT Swindle: Knife Styled After ‘Riverboat Gambler’

[leadin]Sleek lines, an ‘organic’ feel, and a name that throws back to the days of speakeasy riverboat gamblers on the Mississippi… these things put the CRKT Swindle high on my everyday carry list.[/leadin]

In the cutlery world, there are very few well known “free agent” knife designers.  Those who carry weight with their name are usually freelance/collab folks (like Michael Burch ) or in-house designers (like Ed Schempp  at Spyderco).

The exception to this rule is Ken Onion. When he signed with Kershaw, the results transformed the cutlery industry. His Speedsafe-assisted opening design and the “Onion” series of knives catapulted Kershaw from a small brand into a dominant force.

Ken Onion Designed ‘Swindle’

So, when Onion jumped over to CRKT a few years ago it was yet another sign that the company was about to transform itself. As a curious side note, the same guy who signed Onion for Kershaw also signed him for CRKT. The Knife Business is truly a small world.

Onion’s first few designs at CRKT were distinctly Onion-ish — lots of curves and organic blade shapes. They were all technically solid, but none captured the attention of knife “knuts.” Then CKRT released the Swindle .

This is a knife unlike any Onion designed before. It still has something of an organic feel, but its lines and name harken back to a design at least a century old.

Modernized Swayback

The Swindle, with its reverse curved handle and wharncliffe blade, is a modern version of the riverboat gambler favorite — the Swayback.

The swayback is a traditional knife with a nail knick. Its rounded and curvy handle fit well in the hand and its acute point does well at stabbing and piercing cuts, something a riverboat gambler might need to do to get out of trouble. Its thin profile also slices like a demon.

The Swindle eschews the bone or stag of its traditional predecessor, opting instead for blasted steel handles. Unlike the folders carried on the Mississippi, the Swindle has a lock, and it is a framelock (what else would you use in a high-tech rendition of a Swayback?).

It also has a flipper that rides on a bearing pivot, making it a slick and speedy opener.

The real design triumph, however, is the pocket clip. Stylish and functional, the spring-loaded clip rides flush with the of the handle.   There is nothing like it anywhere, and it contributes to the knife’s great feel in handle and its easy carry.

There are two versions, a high-end model  with 13C27 steel, and a lower-end version with 8Cr14MoV. I prefer the clean look of the cheaper version as it lacks the unnecessary and busy corrugation pattern on the handle. Both versions are good EDCs.

Though they lack high steel, they have a great look and feel in handle. And they aren’t too expensive, leaving a few extra bucks in your pocket for a game of Hold ‘Em while you are out on the water.
