Izula folder price?

[JNieporte]

I'm guessing the street price will be around $100. I'd like a version without a coated blade, but maybe that's just me. I wonder if we'll see more ESEE folders after the success of the Izula...

Im with you on the uncoated.. D2 is fairly stainless, as long as you aren't stupid, although they promote their knives for use in super humid environments so coated may be the call. Or it could just be an aesthetics thing at this stage.

But ESEE isn't above making a few bucks through a high-end super-stainless with Ti/G10 slabs version....right? The whole world will love you for it!

one for me--one for my hurricane kit--one for my son--one for my son in law--another one for me--and I'm sure I will think of more by the time they are available--whatever the price it will be worth it.

You forgot me, GPS! Just kidding, I gotta find a way to stash $100 or so without the better half finding out!

I would guess somewhere between $85 and $125, from online retailers.

 

[akula83]

They will cost.......one million dollars.

 

[ohmyheckinslc]

Forget the cost, RAT/ESEE has a good rep for not ripping their public off... Ahem...
Gimme specs...
Length, stock-thickness... etc.

 

[bxrad36]

around $149.99

Man we've been having a lot of zombie threads lately. No one has posted or commented on this since February.

 

[banana-clip]

My guess would be around $150.00 ish

 

[freedoom]

5 bucks.

 

[EricV]

$149.97 or 125lbs of bacon

 

[ckaufman55]

Pricele$$ !!

 

[Rusty Shackleford]

$150 seems pretty steep to me. That's only $25 less than the hest and the hest has D2, Ti framelock, RotoBlock, adjustment wrench...

What steel was the Izula folder going to be made of?

I thought it was D2? or was it 1095?

I thought it was 1095, but it looks like you're right. The esee website says D2.

So it's "All made in the USA" this means union contract negotiations probably haven't even started yet...they had to cancel the first five because people pulled sick time that couldn't be disputed.

Then once they get the contract in place, it will be almost 2012 and after a few walk outs and slow downs, it will finally be ready for tooling. The price has now risen to $549 per knife.

Due to all the legal costs of the union contract suits and the fourteen disability claims for union reps that fell in RAT's parking lot, it is discovered that RAT doesn't have the cash to pay for the steel stock to make the knives.

Just as the product is announced for production, John DeLorean is announced as the new CEO and shortly thereafter is nabbed by INTERPOL with the remaining corporate funds in a Maxpedition pack with a skull silk screened on the front. The knives never make it to the market.

However one prototype did show up on ebay and sold for $3200.

I may be off on some of this, just theorizing here.

Looks like a great folder for sure. Hope ESEE makes the clip so that it rides deep in the pocket. Like the Sog Flash 2
