I recently sold this #7 to a member here. The knife had a round sticker on it just back of the hilt which I carefully peeled off when I got it a couple years ago. You can see that the color under the sticker is lighter than the rest of the handle. I also have a #12-8 with an oddly colored handle that I will post photos of this weekend.

From the look of the spacers, this #12-8 Bear Bowie was probably made in the early 1980's. The handle color varies quite a bit.

Your Yellow is similar to the Yellow Cap posted, with the different shading. Do you know if your knife was stored/exposed to sun/day light?

"Sheath line"...for lack of a better term. The portion darker would ride above the belt loop.

Rod - I got the knife in a Rock Island auction last year. It came to me in a replacement sheath, so who knows how it had been stored? Does the handle look worn to you or would it have come from the shop that way? The handle shape is more "rounded" or "smoothed" than I would have expected it to be.

As promised, it's back! The instruction were to make the old yeller look "equal"...not to touch the blade, etc.
I think it came out even better than I had hoped.
Best, Capt. Chris

Hello!
That 8-4X saw on sale. Interestingly, this yellow micarta or something else?

Really nice #8-4, very cool options on a smaller model.

I apologize for my poor pics, and I am adding quite a few. I have 3 knives and wondered if they were ole yeller or AGM. Any help is always greatly appreciated. L. Sasquatch, Soligen Fighter and a Model 2-4.
