Why Are Koenig Knives So Expensive?

[BigKurtHaze]

Are they still being made by Millit? Millit was started by former CRK employees...Prob why the Koenig have that "Feel"...

No, that’s been a few years now. All of mine were manufactured in house.

I want to see user pictures of an arius

I see tons of user crk but none of an arius

I want to see one beat down and used not just pretty

Is it okay if its beat down *and* pretty? Poses with a coffee cup for that @Dcdavis vibe.

 

[P.C.E.]

The first time I saw an Arius I knew I wanted one and contacted them direct after not being able to find one anywhere, and was told that DLT was getting a shipment "soon", whatever that meant. So I checked the new arrivals page for 2 month every day until it finally came up and ordered mine.

For small batch US made manufacturing you'd be hard pressed to find something better.
The action is everything people talk about and I had a hard time using it because it have "value" in the secondary market, and it was expensive... (nothing I own is permanent and it's all for sale..) but I eventually got over that and it's really a great knife.

I think it not so bad that it got revived, I'd never seen this thread before, there's posts to read and pictures to look at

Too bad these knives are so hard to get, even harder (and much more expensive) for those of us in Europe

I'm annoyed that 4 yrs ago you apparently could buy a Koenig for $500.

It the OP thought $500 was expensive then, what does he think now. LOL!
