Here's one to chew on, at the Blade magazine show, the Hall of Fame Knife was the last one made by the great Bill Moran, it went for $37,000.00. So most of the rest are a bargin.

That I can understand due to Bill's fame but $700 for this knife is nuts you can buy a Helle knife for $50 which will be just as good as this one. I guess it's due to Wilkinson going out of business. I think the maker is still around and he can make you a new one for less than $700.
