I am also trying to better replicate the shape of the fingertips. Compare the index fingertip shape. The slight bulge on the right side of the piece is where the ringlet is... I place my ringlets a little lower on the tip to better fit the majority of people.

Do this to every one of your resurrection gloves and i think it will justify the price <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"

Its just my opinion.. You yourself stated that nothing has changed on the glove other than the blades. The armature templates have remained the same. I don't think blades should cause an almost $150 mark up. when that's all you have changed. Putting the little details in on the fingertips isn't allot of work, were not asking you to make the solder patterns %100 just the fine details, that would justify the $300+ price tag.. BTW Anders is less expensive than your " deluxe resurrection" glove.. You have to remember that Anders hand cuts out all his armature parts. They are not cut via "CNC" process. Hence his price tag.<!--quoteo(post=348926:date=Feb 8 2010, 08:27 AM:name=knifegloves.com)<div class=\'quotetop\'>QUOTE (knifegloves.com @ Feb 8 2010, 08:27 AM) <a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=348926\"><{POST_SNAPBACK}></a></div><div class=\'quotemain\'><!--quotecYou mean there's no justification for the price without this?

Ander's Part 1 glove is extremely inaccurate in terms of template shape (his backplate is just a funky-looking square piece of weathered brass). My blades are more like the blades on the original glove whereas Ander's blades are thicker and more blunt. I replicate the backplate stain on the original glove and I offer the simulated broken index blade. So, if anything... Anders' glove is overpriced IMO. Sure it's nice, but I think you get better accuracy with my templates which results in a glove closer to the original.Compare Anders' Part 1 - <img src=\"http://www.yourprops.com/norm-485e32c129d14-A%20Nightmare%20On%20Elm%20Street%20(1984).jpeg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />Screen-used Part 1 - <img src=\"http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn47/knifegloves/RealHero.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />Yes, my parts are cut via CNC. That's how I do business because I don't have the time to cut them myself (remember, I work a full-time job on top of this and also have a disabled wife I care for). I either spend more time to cut the parts myself or I spend more money to have someone else do it. Either way, it's either the time spent by the builder to cut the parts (which you pay for with Anders) or you pay for the cost incurred to cut the parts (which you pay for with me).And yes... the price to put real knife-steel blades causes the price to skyrocket. The cost to make the real blades is literally 2,500% higher than my regular blades (I did the math). If you want a glove that has the real thing on it... you're going to have to pay for such an authentic feature on it.And by the way... the thicker Parts for the Deluxe Resurrection are hand-cut (except for the backplate).
