Yellowhorse inlay question

[Larry Oden]

I need your assistance. I have a consignment David Yellowhorse knife with an inlay that I have been unable to name in order to describe it on my upcoming list of knives. I have searched my archives and the internet with no success. But, I do have some help. David's fantastic work was the featured cover article in a Knife Magazine issue from October 2019 and there is a Model 904 Subhilt bowie with the same inlay on the cover. Ihave searched the article but this particular knife is not identified. I do not know how to begin to post a picture on this thread but the cover picture pops up in several places when I search for David Yellowhorse on the internet. If any of you could find the cover picture and /or know what David named that particular inlay, I would be most appreciative. By the way, the same picture has the same "scene" cut-out of the blade as well as inlaid into the handle in the cover picture. I would roughly describe it as a native American mounted on a horse and pointing to something in the distance.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

Larry, what is the model you have that's similar to the 904 Subhilt? Here is a screenshot of the cover photo.

The actual knife is a Model 110 but the inlay is the same as that on the 904 Sub-hilt (top picture) on the magazine cover. I just need to know what David calls that inlay.
thanks!!

that's a stumper. I'm not even sure what it is when I look at it here. Is that supposed to be an indian brave on a horse or an indian maiden on a horse?

 

[Happy Hippo]

on worthpoint, the seller punted and called it "an indian on a horse with mountain background"

I think that’s the Crazy Horse memorial that is being carved out of a mountain in the Black Hills of SD.

Thanks for your help Bert and Robin. I will be patient and hopefully somebody will have the answer before long.

AR-Trvir,
You might be on the right track. I found a picture on the website for the memorial and there is a pointed finger!!
I will keep looking.
Thanks for your input!!

That is definitely the Crazy Horse memorial mountain carving. The mountain carving isn’t finished yet but that’s what it’s going to look like when it’s done.

Sorry it took longer than I thought, Larry. I guess others have been helping...

 

[Larry Oden]

Yes, it is Crazy Horse!! I looked and looked on the internet and found that same inlay on a knife and buckle set and it was labeled as Crazy Horse. Good work and thanks to all of you!

Yep, Crazy Horse

That's the coolest Yellowhorse I've seen. Crazy Horse was an absolute stud.
