It appears to be yellow and green. Also, a promo knife for Quaker State Motor Oil, with what's likely an oil can punch (church key) for a blade. Beyond that, post more and better pics, especially the tang stampings. Someone else can probably tell you more... :shock:

Something's fishy... you say you bought this at a yard sale yet this exact knife sold on eBay 3 years ago and your photo is the same one used in the eBay posting. See: https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/ ... -542958017

Regardless, it is not a valuable knife.

I have one just like it that I gave five dollars for. Not very valuable but pretty cool none the less. Don't do like me and oil the joints. The oil seeps into the paper on the slide and stains the paper. I well live and learn.

More oily than fishy!!!
Didn't have the knife with me for pic. This has been the only thing I had found on the internet. Didn't think it was worth very much. Just thought I could find out a little more about it. Thank you Parinoid Dennis.

Thank you Woodwalker for the advice. I'm into this little knife for 10 bucks. I think it's an intresting find.

It is a cool find! Check you can't even get a hamburger fries and a coke for ten bucks anymore and that little knife will last a lifetime! Those window slide knives are pretty interesting in my book.
