Well, TightWad:
Notwithstanding my previous post, full of (perhaps bad) humor, i DO agree with you: divorce is not really a celebration, in itself: but since i personally do NOT know the specifics of Roy's case, & he was asking, i just figured he was past whatever mourning stages he might've gone thru, & was looking for some "pick me up" type of encouragement from his "buds" here at the ol' OK Corral: i mean, forums. So minds wandering where they will, it seemed like a "get tough" kinda knife is just what he needs, if in fact his marriage is not salvageable: since he brought it to the forums with the specifics he did (& didn't) it wasn't my right to pry into the man's business: perhaps some of us DO take it too lightly, but, that's why he posted: to bring an otherwise Heavy event in life a little Lighter outlook. I don't know that anyone was personally 'dissing' on marriage, per se; but just what might cheer up a knife-bro~ in an otherwise emotional & "down" time; to look on the bright side after all the misery that probably went on, but doesn't need to be discussed, here.

RavenQ8 - You might try the "for sale" forums here for a good deal; they come up periodically; ebay, too. The E is the only one available now, not the "original" (they've gone thru a few revisions, actually: the final product, with INFI Steel, & the dropped handle, for more "Power-Transmission" from arm to target, is indeed the BEST for usage: others are able, but generally collector-pieces now, for the next few centuries of descendants, since they'll last =nearly= forever.)
If you BUY the Battle Mistress, even for $347, you STILL will NOT be DISAPPOINTED!
It will live up to well BEYOND its meager price; Hindsight, remember, is clearer than looking ahead; you'll only miss the money for a short time, & wonder how you lived without it...
Then again, as Mel said: "Every man dies, but NOT every man really lives!" Ha, Ha! Live: get a Busse!
