Clip-point bowie marked WOODHEAD & HARTLEY, made c1850 by George Woodhead, 36 Howard Street, Sheffield; ivory scales, half-horse, half-alligator ...

George must have turned a few heads if he was half horse, half alligator with ivory scales ....

This might help, or indeed, just confuse the situation ....   Woodhead

Sure its "Hartley" not Harley and the description of the inscriptions doesn't seem to match "our" knife, which is nice.
