Jim, since you will probably be buying about 5 or so of those AK's, can you just send me one. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

You know, I wasn't planning on getting anything in this Ganza, money being tight and all, and already having just ordered the M9 LE, and planning order a couple CGs when they come out... but a couple of those are really calling my name. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

I'll pass on the bolos, but a few other blades sure catch my eye! Man, why wasn't I born rich instead of good looking?!? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

You guys talked me out of this run, thanks.......When Jerry comes out with a full size bolo, then I will go for it. The Marco Bolo does look too much like the yard hook.

I've been hoping that AK will be in the $800-$900 range (basically 1.5 * [CG AK price]), but the more I consider it, the price tends to increase; it may well cost more than twice as much as a CG, and I don't think I can go for a $1200+ blade right now. I've been looking at it and thinking, "How should this be priced in comparison to an AA?", and I'm finding it real hard to expect that it'll be less -- it has huge a "Ooo... Ahhh..." factor, but if ever there was a safe queen AK, that's it.

Prices have been posted; the 2A (AK47) is $1397.00. I believe that's too rich for me. The 6F AK is possible at $987.00; was it a late entry, or did I miss it the first time through?
AKs were released a few years back at $587, so the 6F is $400 more. It has Black & Tan G10 handles and a satin finish; somehow, $400 for those upgrades seems fairly reasonable (which is a probably a very good indicator of how long one has been sipping the Kool-aid). Who knows, perhaps I'll show restraint -- I have two whole days to agonize over it.
Since this is, after all, a Marco Bolo thread, prices for them are $467.00 for Micarta and $497.00 for G10.
