200 for a titanium frame lock ...... go!

The Benchmade 790 Subrosa, a handsome Ti/S30V assisted opening framelock, although discontinued, is still available and less than your $200. I removed the drive pin, making mine a manual knife - much more to my liking.

Watch the exchange and you can snag a Southard for around that price. If you can wait a bit, the ZT 801 looks like it will be pretty spiffy when it finally hits the stores later this year.
 
I just picked up a Lionsteel aluminum SR-1 on amazon for under 200 they kick ass and with the stabilizer lock it turns it pretty much into a fixed blade.

This would be my vote, or else the HEST DPX 2 folder, also by lionsteel
 
I got this off a dealer on eBay for 162.50 shipped and it's not a blem. Very solid and great fit and finish.

Another vote for the Southard. It's a helluva lot of knife in a lightweight (4 oz) package.
