I think Vic hit the nail on the head. Busse charges exhorbitant amounts to satin finish their INFI knives because they can. It's really just as simple as that. The idea for any manufacturer is to sell its products for as much as the market will bear. It's the same logic that applies to the unbelievable markups found in lots of other knives . . . knives from manufacturers like CRK and Strider and Randall and William Henry (just to name just a few).
I hear ya, it is Jerry's business to run, he makes a hell of a knife and he seems to be doing well, at least well enough to keep the liquor cabinet stocked. What more can one ask for right <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
