I just spoke to TW at KAI and he let me know that the MSRP on the:

ZT0777 is $599, and MAP price is $480 (I got this from BHQ so TW didn't have to waste his time)
ZT0888 is $499, and MAP price is $420 (FYI, MAP(Minimum Advertised Price) is always 20% off of retail for KAI)
ZT0801 is $239, so MAP is $192

EDIT: Shipping dates removed, don't want to set expectations for anyone, there are too many variables and so much work to do.

TW is the one you have to thank for the relatively low MSRP and MAP prices BTW, they know they could charge more on these pieces based on the instant secondary market prices like many other companies do, but KAI doesn't roll that way, rock and roll for them, they have me as a customer for life :).

Remember MAP is MINIMUM Advertised Price. So you could see them higher, or in the case of the infamous "Add to cart to see price", lower than MAP.

And a big THANKS to TW for getting this info out!

FYI, for those that read the production goals that I posted, please disregard, I posted them out of turn. As you all know, KAI produces to the highest standard, AND they have a lot on their plate with so many new models on the horizon, and lets not forget what may be announced at blade (I have no idea what those are, but I hope to be in GA to see first hand!). As such, there are no dates or time frames that can be given on delivery, my post was my bad. At least the pricing is right :D.
 
i hope 0801 will come soon enough.
really nice price for that Ti handle, those new standoffs, design.

Oh yeah, we talked about that one quite a bit, did you get on a pre-order that won the lottery? If so the 888 or the 888max? I am #9 on a list to get the composite reg 888, and 2 slabs of ti, KVT, wicked clip, and SV110 makes me drool, REALLY looking forward to it!!
