Apologies if this has been done elsewhere.

Today, while doing my usual websites I came across "deal" on 12 SURVIVORS GEAR. I won't mention the website to protect the guilty. The gear is usually good but this too much.

So, I see a machete. Not only is it 90 dollars!!!!, the MSRP is over 50 bucks higher. They also have a "hunting knife" 80 bucks from 143.xx. They were made from some rare steel that I had to google. I checked Amazon, and their own website...same prices.

Copied from the site (for the knife)
The 12 Survivors Hunter Camping Knife TS71002 has been designed using top-of-the-line materials and construction to provide you with an amazing cutting edge.

The mystery steel? Something called SUS420J2. All I can say is that wrapping a handle in paracord is much more expensive that I thought.


Any other Whiskey Tango Foxtrot items you've seen so insanely overpriced they should be criminal acts?

looks like standard japanese 420j2 stainless steel. i don't know about criminal, but if i wouldn't buy one.
 
Nothing is "overpriced." Or else it wouldn't sell. And then the seller would lower the price.

Now there are plenty on knives that are not worth the prices people pay for them, to me personally.
 
Looking up the model, that's one pathetic looking machete, to boot.
