I received this from our AAPK store NORTH 40 CUTLERY our honest friend Jfarmer.
All I know, she is a Fight'N Rooster short boy in near mint shape.
(when jfarmer says near mint believe it)
She was made between 1977 & 1982 by Frank Bust Cutlery Co. in Germany.
She is only 3" long closed and has magnificent
YELLOW color.
If any one has more info on this lady please add it here.

Hi there Ken,
Great looking knife, that sure is one "purty" yellow blade you got there. I do believe I like that shade of yellow better than most. I'm a little rusty on my Rooster knowledge but I would bet money that is carbon steel and the Pre 82 Roosters are quite collectable when in mint shape.

Hey Ken, I'm glad you like it. All I know about it is that they made several colors in that pattern. I have a brown one ( Rooster calls it butterscotch) in my store right now. I had an imitation pearl one that was just as nice as yours but I sold it too. Those three are the only ones I have ever seen except for pictures in the book. I hope you enjoy yours Ken.

Yes sunburst is correct. it is carbon steel. Most of the older Roosters will have some peppers since they are carbon steel. I don't think yours has any peppers Ken.
