@JSchell1309 Thank you for pointing that out, I swear I wrote it already about a page back haha.
@littlepod I agree $450US for the rifle and $95US would be a lot for a handle - BUT it's $95AU = $65US.
Brownells sell the Tikka plastic knob extension (just the extension - not a handle) for $49.99US.... that's $15US less than a Sterk CNC machined and hand polished/Cerakoted 431 Stainless Steel handle with a 6061 Aluminium (cerakoted) knob.
People have no trouble paying $60-$65US for an Aluminium picatinny rail that has been CNC machined and anodised, and that's got about half the work involved if i'm honest - no bending, no polishing, no Cerakote - just a 1 piece item with some screws.
The T1x Swept Ball handle is not an easy part to make. You'll see once i've got the video done to show how it goes together.
I'll also add that the DIP handle is cheaper, but it's also cheaper to make (it's a turned part with no milling or extra work required).
Please remember to compare correct currencies and 'apples with apples'.
