I gave up on this one a while back. I think he only wants good feedback or people to support what he is currently thinking. I also believe the absolute best advice is to go to the makers for sale section and looks things over.
Its hard to find knives that basic, but as you wil find, there are many neck knifes with quite a bit more work involved, materials, and time spent for about half what you are hoping to get.
I think any knifemaker here will tell you its not about pricepoint. If we only cared about money, we wouldnt be knifemakers. 99% of newer makers are working for less than minimum wage after you figure everything out.
Soemone early one told me this:
When you are starting, you want your knives in the marketplace. You also want to build your shop. Thus, each knife you should be selling at a pricepoint that allows you to buy enough materials to make two of the same knife. This way, you are guaranteed to never be short on materials and you keep producing.

LOL.
Ok, whatever dude. Crapping on people is not how to get them to buy your knife when you ask for feedback.
