Is there any real point in getting maker this late?

I hear it's getting the Axe.

So like...

Yeah should I just not waste my time?
(Considering that I lvl slow, and 'prolly wont hit 120 till like... September?)

Or should I waste my time, and try to maker a bunch of claws, like, the day before maker expires? (I'm predicting that maker items will massively deflate the week before they kill maker)?
