Is it my old eyes or does the YARBOROUGH and serial number look raised?
Maybe just the photo.

Bobby,
I think it's an optical illusion of the shadowing. Guy used good microlens. I can never get that clarity. Course, anymore all I use is my phone.

I just can’t believe anyone would spend $1,500 for a knife. What did it do: “gut Mohammad al Kabul?”
Don’t they sell new for $350?

Yep
for awhile if you documented your status as an SFQC graduate you could get a numbered one for about 450 if you could show that you were a bonified SF guy before the advent of serialized knives
