Question on a Dave Yellowhorse Buck knife

[Ronbo]

I am not a knife person mainly a varmint prairie dog shooter but I aquired a Buck Custom from an estate in a Wooden Box. It is marked "Hand-Made By Navajo Artist Dave Yellowhorse". The fixed blade is about 4 inches long and is inlaid with turquoise and has a Buffalo in the middle of the handle and is pretty fancy. Also a folding brass Schrade Old Timer 75th Anniversary with a blade about 3 3/4 inches. I did a web search on David Yellowhorse and found some of Buck knives of his for sale but they were folders not fixed. Is anybody familiar with what I have? Thanks, Ron

Are their any markings on the blade? Also what is the general shape of the blade, and of the handle. Just trying to figure how old of a knife it might be, there are several different that he has done I believe. There is also a Buck Knives forum on this site if we cant figure it out here.

David Yellowhorse has performed his craftmanship on many Buck knives...folders as well as fixed blades. His son Brian is also involved in the customization of knives. There is also a David Yellowhorse website which might help you out. You could also check out e-bay as some of their work appears on there.

We're looking for custom straight, buck-knife with turquoise, red stone and yellow horse on it. I saw it [circa] 1990.

probably the model 102 yellowhorse Buck. They can be found with a buffalo, a horse and I think some other designs.
