Can someone justify this price?

[Charlie Mike]

Or a Brend...

They price it like that because they figure someone might pay it.

People regularly spend far more on fake "Confederate bowies." At least it is a real knife.

There's more about that knife here. Lists the specs and materials:

Here's one that is similarly priced:

For that price, those scales better be pre-ban ivory, and the shield and guard better be gold.

Ivory micarta. The guard is probably nickel silver, since the other cowry-x model lists nickel silver as its guard material.

The question is whether or not these are hand ground. But the text on their site makes it clear that they're marketing them as "luxury knives."

IMO pre ban ivory with gold won't really do it for a factory knife

Deal spotting?

More like, highway robbery spotting.

 

[Gunny Bob]

Even using Mammoth and/or Mastodon ivory that'd be steep.
