Expensive mainstream folding knives

[Indy_Guy_77]

Not talking full-house customs (even though a few of the mainstreamers also do some $$$$ customs)

I have a few co-workers who don't "understand" even the carrying of a simple pocket knife - let alone even a $60 Kershaw.

I'd like a few more examples of some expensive ones to show them - just to give them some sticker shock, if you will.

So far, I've only come up with a few:

Specialty Benchmades (no idea on models?)
Speciality Spyderco (no idea on models?)
Zero Tolerance - can go $200+ easily
Strider -- can go $350 - 500 easily
Microtech -- can go $300 - ?? easily
Chris Reeve -- can go $400 - 600 easily

Want to leave autos out of it for now since they're illegal in IN.

What else can I include?

Again, looking for mainstream - not one-off or full customs.

Going to try to make the comparison between makes/models of some cars costing more than others. Not a perfect example - but close.

So, what else can I include?

Thanks!

But Chris Reeve is already on the list! Silly mechanic.
