rare Bark River knife question

[ballisticmike]

A local knife shop has a Bark River "Gold Wolf Hunter" limited edition knife (that is what the origional box reads as i wrote it down). NIB. It has Brown Elder handle, and the wolf etched into the blade is 18k gold. It looks really nice and i want to buy it but cant find any info on google on this model so i dont know if the $240. he is asking is a good deal, average, or ripoff. It also comes with original leather case and this knife is stamped "Bark River, MI" so I know from google search that this knife is old from the original workshop on the Bark River site. Thx for any additional help!

I had one of these knives. Mine was in white or antique Ivory micarta. I never was sure which. They sure are beautiful. Too pretty to use so I sold mine. They are definitely rare though. $240 could buy you two nice barkies off the forums but if you are a collector and you have the extra dough go for it. Aside from mine I had never seen/heard about another one until I read this post. I kind of regret passing mine along but it never would have gotten used. Here's a pic of the one I had.
