I might have the opportunity to pick up a NIB 940TI Protoype and was wondering what a reasonable price would be for it. I never see them for sale so I have no idea what its worth. There is one on ebay for $750 without box but it hasn't sold so its gotta be worth less than that, haha.

Also, how many prototypes are usually released?
 
Is it done with frame lock/liner lock or axis lock? I think if they are able to do one in full Ti axis I would buy it in a hear beat. Otherwise it's just another Ti folder with 940 handle shape. What kind of blade stock btw?
 
I saw that one, and I'd sure like to have it, but not at that price. I think $500 would be my top dollar, but without the original box, I'd say more like $350-$400. I have no clue what the original price on the 940Ti was, or what they sell for these days, that's just what I'd be willing to pay.

I thought I saw one on "The List" at a small pawn broker down in the Deep South. Listed as NIB complete and I think they were asking $650.
 
Prototypes are always released in small numbers and are the ones that typically increase in value as a result. Prices? Who knows, but the 940Ti is a rare knife.
 
I looked up that one crolfe was referring to and it was actually listed at $450 with the original box.
