Is there one special knife, that in a moment of weakness you let go of? For me it was a small Pheasant Tail Sebenza that I sold when I lost my job, and now I know it can never be replaced.
 
I traded off 3 mint Imperial tu-tone pattern shell handle knives once for a Bulldog proto. The knives themselves weren't amazingly valuable, but in their condition, they were very hard to find. I wish I had them back. I ended up modding the bulldog as an auction item for Easter Seals, so it wasn't all bad...
 
The one I regret letting go is a Scrap Yard Dog Father.

And these I don't regret letting go, but I do miss 'em....
An older run Kershaw Damascus Skyline.
Busse Hog Muk LE.
JK Hudson Bay XL.
The Pocket Muk.
 
Early Gerber Mk II with no serrations and canted blade....needed a battery for the '67 Ford Galaxy.
 
A custom knife and sheath by maker J Nielsen. Should've saved it for one of my sons. Dumb...
