Cribbage Board Belt ("The Cribbelt")

Color: Natural
Black
Dark Brown
Honey
Natural
Size: Small
Version: No Eyelets

A classic high quality leather belt that doubles as a traveling, on-the-go cribbage board.

Metal eyelets have become expensive and difficult to source and we are currently out of stock. We are now producing non-eyelet versions going forward, which are also more economical to make! See photos for eyelet vs non-eyelet versions. 

The hole patterns appear at a glance to be a visual design, but when you lay it on the table, it becomes a 2-lane, 60-point cribbage track.

Pegs are not included with the belt, but they can be served with whatever is on hand: MacGyver matchsticks, toothpicks, or twigs all make perfect pegs on the fly or purchase an extra set of Cribbage Pegs to stash in your pocket.

  • Medium (33"-35") / (84-89 cm)
  • Large (36"-38") / (91-97 cm)
  • XL (39"-41") / (99-104 cm) 

BUCKLE

Comes with a standard 1.5" buckle, but our buckle can be replaced with your favorite buckle by simply unscrewing the Chicago screws.

    **I will come back and update on the product itself after it's opened.

    I needed a custom size in the belt and reached out to see if they could do that, received a quick reply back that they could, and instructions on how to order it. They told me w the custom size that it could be 1-2 weeks, which was fine. I knew since I stumbled across this so close to Christmas that I wouldn't get it before anyways. HOWEVER!, I got an email saying it had shipped only a day or 2 after placing the order! And it just arrived today, the day before Christmas!! I am SO thrilled because I was so not expecting it to arrive until sometime after the new year. So yeah, 5 stars for customer service and speed!

    I made two of these a few years ago

    Looks great. I made two cribbage belts a few years ago. For the pegs I used .22 caliber bullets. Drilled out the powder and epoxied some pins to used as pegs. The bullets are also stored on the belt, just like a western gunslinger, lol

    Ingenious design!

    I bought this belt for my husband who has played cribbage his whole life. Did you know it is the only game you are legally allowed to play for money in an English pub? We are off to the Far East for a few weeks, one of which will be on a motorbike. With this belt we will be able to play wherever and whenever we want. And it’s beautifully hand-crafted too. Love it!

    LOVE THIS PRODUCT!

    This seems to be the undiscovered gem of Walnut Studiolo's products. My boyfriend and I love to play cribbage, and often get the itch at the bar or on road trips and camping trips. It is always a fun discovery that we happen to have a cribbage board on hand, when he can just take off his belt and slap it down on the table. Viola! Cribbage match is ON! We've laughed every time we've 'discovered' this. They key for us is really to REMEMBER the belt is a cribbage board...

    Is the buckle of the cribbage belt removable to where another buckle can be used?

    Walnut

    Yes. The buckle is attached with a Chicago screw which can simply be un-screwed and screwed back in with the buckle of your choice.
