It really depends on who makes it and what handle material it gets.
IIRC, if we specify horn, Bura will likely make it (or at least oversee it) and that will command a higher price.
The design is fairly straightforward and the model is somewhere around 13". The blade is also only 1/4" thick. So, my guess is that the price will be somewhere between $75 and $100.
I'm less concerned about price than I am about them getting it right - no offense intended, but a flat-grind, zero-edge design is not common. Neither is the sheath Dave made for it (though, that really should go over ok).
Given its size, this knife should feel very quick in the hand. Dave gave it a distal taper. It will be a real fighter.
...or as Keith puts it "a nice karda for (a) falcata..."
