Most expensive knife that you USE.

A large Regular Sebenza, I use it to cut boxes down, cut open packages, cook/eat, and any other everyday task that calls for a knife.
 
Mine would be an Umnumzaan

Hi CM -

I have used all but one knife I own, so the most expensive is also the most expensive that I use.

Although my large sebenza and XM-18/24 get traded out every few days for most EDC use.

I'm not sure carrying around = use. What do y'all use these knives for?

This is my most carried and used knife, a Laconico custom in O1.

Today I used it to cut insulation for our house. I have been using it since the first part of the year, every day, for everything you can think of using it for while building a house, from cutting open boxes to slicing house wrap to trimming back the nylon flanges on windows to cutting strapping to notching lumber to trimming OSB to prying out staples...................

When you show your several hundred dollar knife, and say you use it, how do you use it?

I use mine for the same things I use any of the ones I have in my edc rotation....... cut stuff.

I do not carry this knife everyday because I like to rotate a certain group of my knives. My cutting needs are evidently not as involved as yours are, but the question asked what was the most expensive knife I used, so I answered with the most expensive knife I use.:)
 
My most expensive user is this "Thiers" ti and bark mammoth ivory liner-lock from veteran South African maker (and damn nice guy) Des Horn, based on the traditional French clasp knife with the same name. I certainly don't beat on it, but it's great as a large elegant dress knife for occasional carry and light use. It feels just right in the hand, the high hollow-ground Damasteel takes a razor edge and the low-profile blade flicks open without a flipper or thumb-stud very much like striking a lighter.

Oh jesus. I'm happy that's a right handed knife, so that I can't justify buying one.
 
Right now it's a Modified Cold Steel Master hunter. Next is a Cold Steel American Lawman that I carry pretty much everyday. Over the past few years I've owned a LOT of very expensive knives. I don't see the point anymore.
