What is your rarest knife?

How about a royal 18th century Piha Kaeta knife from Ceylon?

The one on the top. CRK told me they had made only a few of them. Large Regular with BG42, serrations and swedge.

Zt 454 or 606

I have a Severtech Spartan that was used in the movie.

Cheyenne Hawk. Predecessor to the Lakota Hawk before they were forced to change the name. Mr Hoffman told me about 100 were produced before they were giving the court order to change the name.

I have a stainless steel model 25 GEC EZ open with a sheepfoot blade and curly zebra wood scales. According to GEC's website only 31 were made. I also have a Jess Horn Spyderco that was exclusive to A G Russell that I bought from his catalog.

View attachment 1336199 These are both unique as far as I know. A Darrel Ralph custom MADD MAXX with a 9" S-90-V blade.
The 91mm SAK custom Ti Waiter with a saw and skeletonized handle.

Custom K-2 folder by Farid. Blade is CPM Rex 121. AFAIK, less than 100 made.

Rare? That would be a Shaka single-edge fighter in L-6, made in a saw-sharpening shop in Zimbabwe in the early 90s. Also a sterile Peter Bauchop Witch fighter, from South Africa.
I have a Blackjack Magnum Camp Knife, with original Kenny Rowe pin-lock sheath. Not really rare, but definitely uncommon. This one would evolve into the Kabar/Becker BK-5. I also have one of those, but they are completely different knives.

It's tricky to identify my rarest knife since I have a few customized productions and a couple handmades which are one-of-a-kind... but the closest, rarest one at hand is a handmade skinner with mammoth tooth handle. (Maker: Steve Nolte) My crappy pics don't do it justice, but here it is:

Well, this post got me thinking...I have some knives that I bought around 20 years ago that might be considered rare. Not really sure how rare they are.

Left to right: Benchmade Sentinal, Benchmade Park Avenue, Chris Reeve Umfaan.

I think this one would be the only one with BG42 Blade an G10 Handle:

This isn't a really rare knife, a bunch were made a while back by GEC. However, its a 1 of 1 because its sort of unique. Its a Northwoods Burnside jack in stag. What make it sort of unique is that it is the knife that KSF used for the ad copy on their website, the picture is still there in the Northwoods archive section.....

In this config, a one-off, AFAIK.

Probably my Al Mar 5th Special Forces bowie:

I have a few...but this one is rare for sure. No other one out there like it.
Not sure why it is posting the photo upside down.

Here is my rareist, not sure of the history Tho. It was either my fathers who was born in 1925, or my step fathers who was born in 1913, so possibly a hand me down from their father? I found it when I was going through their possessions when I was packing up the family home when my mother passed. The blade is marked with the name Ed Wusthof, Solingen. One scale side is embossed August Ay, and the other side is embossed a date 1907. All the springs are still tight, and the scissors are sharp and still cut paper. That’s a Large Inkosi, for a size reference. It looks like it was well used
