    I’m not sure why it’s a prototype, but I sent him a message to ask why. I’ll keep you posted.

    It looks real, but I doubt it's an actual prototype. Most likely just a vg junglas that was purchased, then laser engraved to put back on the market for double the price.

    Not any engraving we did. Someone took a regular Junglas and added the zombie BS and trying to sell it as a pre=production knife. Well, it's not a prototype from ESEE.

    It just really bothers me that he's not scared of us. Just wait til Mike Perrin gets him.

    Well, if you think about it he's telling the truth. It looks to be a legit ESEE knife and if he decided to have that crazy logo engraved on it then he's got a prototype one-off. More power to the guy. If someone is dumb enough to pay that much money for an ugly ESEE then he deserves to be paid.

    I actually agree with Jefe Randell on this one.

    If someone's stupid enough to pay for it, so be it.

    Maybe I should add some ghetto trench art to my 4 and post it up for a few hundred... As a one of a kind hand engraved prototype, obviously. There might be some real money to be made here.

    Worth buying just to send to Mike for warranty.

    If you send it back for warranty then you'll just get back a regular, crappy Junglas instead of this super special variant that no one else has (or wants).

    He's already updated the description, lol. Evidently mtngoat is a cry baby.
