I'm working on a couple of Sgian Dubhs just now using some beautiful Damascus blades made by Howard Clark and these are really amongst the best made blades that I've seen.

Kind of a blade oriented person myself. Depending on the maker obviously $200 could be a steal.
It's really just a matter of personal preference. If you want something that looks the part I'm sure you can find it. If you want a functional blade there's that too, and if you want something that says "I own fortune 500 companies" that's out there as well. Match your need and go from there.

I went with the $200 price point, which I hope to buy when I find one I really like, though I rather got lost on Rab's site and maybe drooled a bit on the keyboard...
Anyway...I bought this one on eBay recently, simply because I wanted one and though I paid closer to $20 for it, it was the only one I found with a 'sharp' blade and it certainly is!

It's not too cheap looking and a decent weight, though like I said, it's a filler for now...
Slàinte mhòr agad!
