Interesting. Archer also designed the Chute Knife made by R .W. Loveless. Of course, that was worth more than $200.
Loveless told me that he got few orders for that knife, but I think it was excellent for the perceived need, for a practical survival knife. I couldn't afford the Loveless, but had a very similar knife made by the late Bob Hajovsky.
