Nothing boosts self-eSteam in a game like expensive CS:GO knives. It's not easy to get them, and let's not even talk about rare specimens. No wonder they are — the main target of most of the swindlers and the object of your teammates' fierce envy.
We decided to take a look at the situation with the market of kerambits and other stabbing and cutting equipment, presenting a list of really luxurious knives in terms of value and rarity. Take a close look, if you have one of these, and you have no idea how valuable a copy you have.
Our top ten are formed in alphabetical order, because the value and cost of expensive knives in CS GO is unstable and constantly adjusted depending on the demand.
Legends Kerambit
An interesting and unusual knife, created in the style «of the very» sniper rifle that most gamers dream of. Special attention is paid to the gold-colored blade with applied Celtic patterns. The handle is dark green, with a distinct handle pattern. In the hand, this ceramite looks bombastic, especially if you alternate it periodically with the AWP Legend of the Dragon. If you suddenly came across one of these in StatTrak version, also right from the factory — congratulations on the jackpot of about 2500$.
Kerambit Marble Gradient
One of the most expensive knives in CS GO in its category. Moreover, the pattern of the cerambit is so unique that it will be problematic to find a couple of the same ones on the trading floor. Almost 1000 pattern variations, among which we recommend to pay special attention to 412, 16 and 152. They are valued at a 4-digit sum in American rubles if you are lucky enough to stumble upon a top-of-the-line «Factory» copy with a counter. Another feature of the red and blue knife — maximum wear is limited to the mark «A little worn».
Kerambit Ultraviolet
Quite an unusual graphite-black skin with matte blade texture and plastic handle with purple inserts. At first glance, it's a typical skin, but in the game it looks much more spectacular.
Many people like the worn version, or the battle-hardened version, when the paint on the claw and ring partially comes off, revealing the steel. It is immediately obvious that the owner of the knife did not only wear it for beauty, but also used it often for its intended purpose. Which one? No one will ever talk about it again. The peculiarity of the skin is that for the version «Right from the factory» there is no StatTrak counter.
Claw Nightstripe
At first glance not the most presentable skin on the background of Blood Web or Sapphire Wave, but this knife has a number of features that make it unique. In the StatTrak version, only «is found after the field», and the «variant straight from the factory» with counter is not present as such. On the Steam marketplace they ask about 250$ for it, but for certain patterns in conjunction with the degree of wear and tear you can get more than 900-1000$. The main thing — to diligently monitor the market for rare specimens.
Butterfly knife Tiger's Tooth
And this is one of the most expensive butterfly knives in CS:GO. And that butterfly doesn't really want to feel that butterfly in your stomach, like that cheesy saying. The paint job lends itself to an unusual combination of yellow and orange against the bare brushed metal. As it is easy to guess, the cost of the knife is determined by the rarity of its pattern and the presence of StatTrak counter.Besides, the skin is presented only «directly from the factory» and in «slightly worn» quality. Managed to rip off FN-knife — start monitoring the sites in search of the most delicious price.
Waves Phase 1 folding knife
You can't call it the most expensive knife in KC, but the price for some specimens goes over $500-700. But we must say that the skin looks amazing, just cosmos. The combination of purple, black, dark blue and in places gray create a gorgeous gradient.
What is characteristic, knives of quality «A little worn» are priced higher than factory knives by 100-150$ depending on the pattern, of which more than 500 variants have been developed. Did you get one of these? Immediately look at the pattern and degree of wear.
Bayonet knife M9 Autotronics
Bayonets M9 are considered the most expensive knives in CS:GO as of 2020. And therefore, to meet here skin more than 1000$ is not a problem at all. For example the Autotronic, which has almost everything perfect: the blade is accented with a red dusting, the handle with a pronounced gray grid and nothing else. It plays bare metal in the sun and overall looks as brutal as can be. Another feature of the skin — is the absence of scuffs regardless of the degree of wear: the pattern becomes darker, as befits the original weapon that has been in battle.
Bayonet knife M9 Blood Web
And here is the most expensive knife in CS GO, the price of which not so long ago exceeded $12000. Naturally, in favor of the factory version with StatTrak. Versions of «Worn» and even more so «Battle-hardened» are of little interest to almost no one, as the trademark blood-red paint with cobwebs is almost completely rubbed off on them, and the handle becomes gray and unsightly. All owners of this knife are strongly advised to look at the skin pattern, which is where the main value lies.
M9 Legend Bayonet Knife
This eye-catching golden knife is a must-have for all AWP owners «Legend of the Dragon», as their styles are very similar. The knife and the rifle are related by the predominance of yellow colors on the blade and the Celtic pattern on the cutting edge. The latter is made as if by etching technology, so it does not deteriorate according to the degree of wear. The factory knife and «After the field» are virtually indistinguishable, but in «Worn» form it's no longer as good. And if you're lucky enough to find a StatTrak «Straight from the factory» — there's a chance to sell it for 3-4 thousand bucks.
