Although I am in the market for a Charge TTi, so far, there haven't been too many post holiday blowouts, fewer than last year or the year before when I found some good buys on other Leathermen. This is surprising to me because I expected weak sales then would lead to inventory dumping later, but not so far, at least with knives and multi-tools. This may change, of course, and I am not too impatient to wait for a deal, but there is a degree of uncertainty as to whether prices will go up or down.
How about it? Will rising costs drive prices higher, or will a bad market depress them?
