Or maybe folks can take variable cost structures into mind when making comparisons and realize that the Legacy line is exceptionally well featured for its price. Expecting it to perform like a replica at double or quadruple its price class is ludicrous.
For under $200 with a sweet case and blade, these things are honestly unbelievable. And I only need to buy one blade? And other replica hilts come in around $100? Unheard of.
