I don't know if their prices have gone up or not, but they definitely changed around their website. The main product list at their website was their standard models with laminated wood handles, and prices on those ranged from something like $18 to $75. But I can't find those 'basic' knives on their new website...
They've always had more expensive knives too, with nicer handle materials and more varied designs. But they were often listed at a seperate website, like a Yahoo Group web page or something. That was a real PITA.
Maybe they're not done with the website? Or maybe the 'basic' knives didn't sell well and the more customized knives sold better...
