I watch a ton of Forgotten weapons.... and this thing is just gorgeous to me. Would anyone here shell out $5700 for one? Or would you rather get 6 Kimbers or 4 Dan Wessons?

Not bad, But I'll take a Colt 1911 over it any day in the "looks" department. YMMV...
P.S. that artwork on the rear of the slide looks like an old Jensen Speaker Housing.

I think it is a interesting design with the roller locker. The did a lot of machining to make that, but they just didn't fit the grip safety or trigger well and that really bugs me at the price point

A few years ago at the Shot Show I asked the Korth rep about why there were no semi autos on display he told me that they stopped making semi autos and are only concentrating on revolver production. I asked hem why and he told me that there semi autos never worked correctly .so they were taken out of production to keep there reputation.
a 1911 with a rail: blasphemy and punishable. nothing beats a plain old no frills government model
I'd take almost anything over the Kimber at least I would feed. Inb4 you older people with older models before Kimbers QC went to pot.

In this particular case I'd disagree about it being that ugly. If you noticed that gun is squared off everywhere. I think it's probably look worse if it just boxed off at the end like the rest of it it instead of having a rail.
