What should I charge for this knife?

Rules Violation.

On a few levels.

It looks nice. I have to ask why 1/4" steel on a 3" blade? As how much to ask for, what do you have in it? Does it have a sheath? Why not just keep it? Try $40 ??

Do a pass-around and analyze user feedback?

Thanks and good question. It's 1/4 because that's what I had on hand, and no sheath. I had a chunk of 1/4"x1 1/2" stock laying around, and that beefy tanto was born.

3x the cost of materials

Maybe around $20? As an alternative to a Mora, for somebody who wants something more overbuilt and "tactical?"
I'm gonna be honest here, I'm not too crazy about the design. Thick blades and Tantos aren't really my thing. If you're going to sell your first knife, why not make it something from this thread?
