Well, I can't keep them all, and reluctantly let this rare knife from Mike Draper go. It is the prototype of his SR-1 model, made in 2002 and in brand new, MINT condition! It has a 3 1/2" hand-rubbed blade with differential heat treat and visible temper line. Slightly convex, it is razor sharp. Titanium slab framelock, with rock-solid lockup, and matching tip-up clip. Completely radiused, the handle has both the skull crusher butt and "come-along" horns on the pivot end. The dual thumb studs have a cabachon inset, too. Full ti backstrap, on the inside it says "prototype", and is initialed and dated. Asking exactly what I paid in 2002 - $325 shipped.
 
Handles are titanium. I believe the blade is either 52100 or maybe 5620. Mike handforged the blade.
