Try 500S for the 1 hand and work down if you have to. I agree about the inflation since Trickster came out, although prices are coming down on Teva. As far as the "obvious advantages" to using claws over dual swords, I think you are wrong about that. The duals have higher damage, the attack rate difference is non-existent, and they crit well also. That being said, too many players apparently have a fixation with being Wolverine from the X-men, so you probably can't get much above 100S for the duals.
