I saw something similar at a local Gunshow. Seems to be a newer version of the Rogue Warrior SMF. I'm not sure about the handle, maybe modified factory or otherwise? The one I saw/handled didn't have the regular SMF G-10 style, but not quite like that one either. I think they have alot of variations.
 
A similar if not near identical RW-1 has made the rounds and was discussed at length. If this might be the same one, it was deemed that it was one of the last batch of RW's that weren't stamped. According to a previous owner both the scales and laser etching were done by the original owner.

I think the handles have been modified by a previous owner, but the RW-1 is a specific version of the SMF. The regular SMFs typically come in a high flat grind and the RW-1 as you can see is saber ground. It also has a thicker tip I believe. Aside from that I don't know what the differences are or where you can buy them outside of the secondary market.
 
Usual Suspect.net would be a good place to ask. More Strider collectors there. Bet you get a response in 1 day over there.
