Wow... I simply shook my head at this: I got an email from someone who asked for these new blades to be used on his glove. I told him it would push the price of the glove upward to near $300. He responded by saying this:"You know what man, I was really looking forward to getting one of those gloves, but your just making this process harder than it has to be. I really hope you not being all difficult on purpose. And as far as you charging me DOUBLE the price, JUST to use a different type of steel, is ridiculous. But whatever, im still thinking of getting one but it wont be anytime soon. Thanx fer being honest, I guess."Simply understand this if any of you think the same... this feature is something that NO other glove builder has ever offered on a glove. I have never seen any glove maker ever use true surgical stainless steel for the blades on a Freddy Glove. Nightmaregloves.com uses really good steel for their blades but they are not like real knives. They do not flex and spring back into shape like the REAL Part 1 glove did. They are thicker than the blades used on the original glove as well. I have major issues with the template accuracy of Nightmaregloves.com as well. Kruegear was astronomically expensive when they were in business and their blades weren't really that great and I personally feel that the templates on their Part 1 glove were inaccurate. So, it makes perfect sense to expect to pay around $300 - $350 for a hand-crafted glove that offers much more accurate templates AND true knife steel that offers an extremely accurate and custom realism to the glove. If you want HIGH-END features to be used on your glove, expect to pay HIGH-END prices. It's basic logic. You can't get a Lexus for the price of a Dodge Neon.
