Goal was nice but functional. To be honest, I'm still trying to figure out a fair price for these, and have moved it up and back down again since starting this post. Obviously, we'd all like to make (and sell) $700 or higher knives, but mine aren't at that level yet. I've decided I will sleep good asking between 3-400 for it. Please feel free to comment, and thanks for looking.

Tito, it's a great looking knife and i really like your style of sheath. i see this knife being taken out of a pack when the animal is down, and you set to work, saying nothing to your buddies. within a minute they all want to try it and everybody has a big grin on their face.
as a frequent buyer of custom knives, i think i always get a bargain pricewise. there's so much skill and effort and experience in this knife that i can't see how $300 or even $400 covers it. price gets set by what the more-or-less average joe can afford. actually, not afford, but justify to himself .
i think once you go above $500, the size of the potential buyer market shrinks dramatically, but not because the knife isn't worth it.
i hope a hunter dude buys this one.

thanks roland, I think you hit the nail on the head. At least that's the process I go through myself when I make any purchase like this.
