They have always have the smooth yellow bone; but have now renamed it. In the past it was "Banana Peel", but has now changed to "Yellow Rose". Very nice variation that has a good following.

yuppers its the same yellow they have been using.
should have put that in my first post.

thanx Mike. ::tu::

i dug a little deeper and found some more info.

i guess this is GEC trying to grab TEXAN hearts!

Yup. Emily Morgan. She ... uh ... "distracted" Santa Anna at San Jacinto.

And DANG that's a nice knife!

peterforce - A couple years ago Case had a special Texas shield on some of its knives. My favorite is the Bois D'arc trapper, which my sweety pie bought me for Christmas last year. Several still show up on ebay.

oops I may have misunderstood your question ... :oops:

I had read the story (or a similar one) about Santa Anna practicing his invasion tactics on Emily Morgan. :lol:
