Yikes.....you may be right there Bob....maybe for that particular one....if they do other nuclear Khukri's then perhaps less than half this? The Test Team price is $695 or so it has been posted...I understand though that those sold at blade were slightly discounted...probably around $650 maybe...no one knows for sure as those who purchased are not allowed to say. That would have a nuclear model at say $995 max I would have thought. The "induction" knife though may go for a lot more....
