I bought a Yarborough Knife
I received my Yarborough Knife yesterday. The Memo of authorization took about a month to get but once I sent the Memo and payment off to the JFK Museum I had the Knife in about 5 working days! (Thanks Reaper!)
The knife is very nice. Great work from Mr. Harsey and Mr. Reeve! I have a Project One Reeve knife so I am already aware of the quality of Mr. Reeve’s knives. Mr. Harsey did a great job on the design. As a tool it is very impressive but it is also nice to have a piece of SF history that I can pass on to my kids.
I highly recommend the knife to anyone considering buying it. I will be looking for a different sheath, the one that came with it is OK but I would like something better.
Once I figure out how to properly use this digital camera I will post a picture. Every time I try to develop the pictures in my gore-tex jacket it screws up the camera. I do not understand it because it worked in O & I.

Got it! Looks like a great knife. Too bad they weren't issuing us toys like that 20 years ago. (Geez, I feel old now.)

Pic of Yarborough & 1911
Gentlemen,
I finally figured out how to work this camera. Here is the picture of my Yarborough Knife. Thrown in for size relation is a Kimber 1911.
Enjoy!

Got my memo. Only took about a week once I faxed in my request. I'll order the knife next payday! I'm looking forward to getting one Bill. Nice work!

You're quite welcome! Now I want one like you gave TR!!!! To call you an artist is like calling Leonardo Devinci (probably spelled incorrectly) an artist. The term doesn't even come close!
