The 5.5" blade HG55LE was $397 + shipping. I wonder why the SAR4 costs more? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />


Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

Looks like the SAR4 takes a lot of extra machining, for all of those radiused edges.

I was expecting it to cost a small fortune, and they didn't let me down. I'll be sticking with the S5 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Monster Chopper for a few bucks more.

Come to think of it,I will just
wait on the M9LE and then Dan's new knife.
Might even be able to afford 2 Scrapper 5's
for the price of 1 SAR4.

I only paid about $325 or so for my FFBM new. There is enough INFI in it to make about four SAR4s! Besides, I have a SAR knife, the SARsquatch!

Yep, sound like 2-3 S5's for the cost of one Sar 4!

I'm going SR101... I think

$400 for a little 4.875" blade these days..... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

and $2,100 for longer knives.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

I see a BAD pattern for INFI and Busse knives.

I may have all the INFI I will ever have at this rate... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

WAY to rich for me! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />


I hope those prices don't carry over to the Yard!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" /> I still hope for the S5LE in INFI, but I am VERY worried about it's price.

JYD #39 I prefer "SATIN" blades!!!

Dan had said under $200 for the infi le if it happens. Course that may mean $195, $160...so we wait to see!

Agreed on the Busse pricing. Everyone else seems to be trying to induce some economical good will. I think I have all the BC INFI I'm willing to invest in now. Glad I found the Scrap Yard and I hope we don't see that kind of inflated cost over here.
