Ouch !  IIRC I paid about $48 each ( incl postage) for the two new ones I bought last year.  Seems they are now in demand ( I think they have been out of production for several years now).

That's cheaper than I was expecting it to go for.

Not the genuinely "tough made-in-USA ones.  Since Taylor Cutlery purchased the Schrade brand the "tough" Schrade tools made and sold these days are decidedly "weak and inferior", and no-where near as good as the original tools.  That's why the USA versions are sought after.
