    I'm kind of a knife collector, so it depends on the knife. If it looks good to me, I'll pay whatever I think fair.

    The highest I've paid for a folder is $350 each for a Strider GB and an AR.

    The highest for a fixed was about $300 for a Busse custom.

    I have a Cold Steel Mini Culloden (plain edge) that is a great Sgian Dubh.

    Still searching for a more traditional model...

    I too have accumulated several (many) sgian dubh knives, and knives that stand in for a sgian dubh.

    The least money for the ones that I have kept, has been $22.50 (ebay) and the most has been $130.00. I think the mean price for a usable blade in my mind would be around $75.00.

    However, I also have a few that I would not part with, so I consider them priceless. A few were acquired through trades, A couple were made for me as presents, and a few I made myself.
