Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 4 reagents for one craft of Forgewire Axe cost 437 gold92 silver. Most of that is Spirit of Harmony - 2 at 161 gold50 silver each, 323 gold, 73.8% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 460 gold96 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item has no current Auction House listing to compare it against, so the estimate above is left unknown rather than guessed.
