Anyone heard of R. D. Prather, knifemaker?

[grangerknives]

A friend received a knife made by R.D. Prather. Anyone know the name, perhaps the time period that he was active as a maker?

Sincere thanks for your time and effort.

There is a Jeff Prather, who is a knife maker, designed a Prather Bowie for TOPS knives. You might look him up and see if knows the R.D. Prather? John
