    someone just posted a sale thread on BF selling a Shot Show media sample of the Garberg, 1 of only 3. He wants $1,000 OBO. Where would you place the value? I'm a big Garberg and Mora fan but... I think the very first production model made would be cool to have or one of the prototypes. I'm lost as to how valuable a media sample is though.

    The same as any other garberg. I put zero value in collectibles.

    Same. I recently acquired a new Carothers Behemoth Chopper. There are only 5 in existence. That is something someone would put a big premium on. If it was a production blade, not so much. That's like someone selling a factory ESEE with different markings for $1000.

    I saw that yesterday. I agree, still a Mora Garberg, no matter how you slice it. I don't even want to pay the $75 for a "regular" one.

    Yeah for me, I'd probably pay less than retail for one with "media sample" laser etched on it.
