Just about every month now the wholesale pricing of the Vniti blades has been going up by a few dollars. We've been eating the cost increases thus far to offer a good value to the fencers out there who need a good and durable FIE blade.
However, the latest round of price increases by Vniti have reached a tipping point. Very soon all of our prices on Vniti blades and weapons will be going up, so if you were looking at them you should get them before Thanksgiving as by then we'll be sold through our "lower" cost Vnitis and into our latest round of them which are going to have to sell for more.
Just a heads up to the community. I would expect other vendors to raise their prices on the Vniti blades soon as well, unless they are selling them as loss-leaders.
