I hate you, Peter.

I want one.

Again no problem, Tom!
Come and get it!

Peter, do you know how many Yellowhorse Mustangs were made? Do they carry a serial number? That's just a beauitful knife. The turquiose is striking!

Don´t know, how many are made!
I think, you can google it on some Buck- or Yellowhorse-fansites?!

I just saw this ... from AG Russell.

Heavy loaded, this Buck!

Looks nice in a showcase!

If you want a Yellowhorse try to get one done by David.

Sidney,
I rememebr the first ones (at least I "think" I remember) for were by "Daniel" and they were spectacular! Of course, this was 2 decades ago.... Why do you say "David"?
Thanks, Capt. Chris

This is my every day pocket-Buck at the moment!

Very nice, Peter! I like the clean look of no nail notch. According to this Buck 112 Data Sheet, your knife is a Category III, Version 4 and was made in the late 70s.
