    A Run

    I dont know what your material or time costs were, but I would STRONGLY encourage you to plan a run of these. I would certainly order one or two (maybe more for pards).

      You Will sell out the first and second runs you make at almost any price. Then sales will slow down. You need to keep this in mind when planning a production run.

      Knowing some custom knife makers I would be surprised if you could price these under $50. More realisticaly you may start your prices at $99 given the time and materials in the item. How many people will pay for the extra authenticity? That is the gamble!

      This is why you see some very good replicas produced but in small numbers. We as a hobby cant support mass production of high quality goods.

      Just a rant on my part!
