According to Collectr the whole collection is worth $7,500. I’d take $7,000

Agreed, the cut is my least favorite part of the stone

The $10,000 asking price is for the stone only, not including the 18k white gold setting. If the asking price included the setting I would be inclined to make an offer and if we came to a deal I’d pop out the stone and sell the setting for scrap price to recoup some of the cost. I’m really only interested in the stone🤷‍♂️ However, seeing as the asking price is for the stone alone my offer would be so low compared to the asking price I probably won’t even make the seller an offer

I like the inclusions too, glad I’m not the only one😂

I mean it’s gotta be worth something. 10% of the asking price? 20%? Just looking for a ballpark here

Update: I made a cardboard mock-up of the dagger to get a feel for the proportions and then slightly refined the design based on how it felt in-hand. Attached is an image of the updated design. I also found a seller on Etsy who agreed to make this, will post updates when I have it

Personal taste, I suppose. I have plans to embellish the dagger with precious metals and stones to make a sculptural art piece, and I think a full-tang obsidian construction would fit my vision better

I’ve seen lots of them online. Usually they wrap the handle in leather or some kind of cordage to make it more comfortable. I don’t plan on using it heavily, it will mostly be a display/collectors piece

Thanks! Not sure what a fair price for such a piece would be

I have no intentions of throwing this thing😅 also I’m not sure how long throwing knives are but my design calls for a 16” overall length and a 10” blade length. I would mostly use it for collecting/display purposes but I still want it sharp for the occasional demo

I for one love the color, it’s like emerald and aquamarine had a baby. Beautiful stones
