What knife did you trade or sell and wish you had'nt?

Buy, sell, buy more. Its about the hunt and usually I don't look back. This one though, I should have hung on to...

Original SOG Pentagon. They totally ruined that knife with the new model.
 
My old USMC Ka-Bar. I know they're a dime a dozen but I put mine through hell and back as a kid and it still was going strong the day I gave it to a friend. I've missed that knife since.
 
Spyderco native comes to mind, along with original mini manix and my two benchmade pikas.
Also miss my cqc-7 and case stockman from many years ago.
 
Emerson mini CQC-15. I wanted it, I got it. It was everything I had hoped for and MORE! So much more! Then I traded it, like a doofus. I have yet to find a knife that I have cherished and used as much as my mini-15.
 
benchmade 275 , I loved that knife but i needed quick cash so she had to go , and man do I miss her.
 
I sold my BM Griptillian tanto to help pay for a benchmade switchback. The Griptillian was my first really good knife and man do I miss it.
 
Almost all my production knives are what i regret selling.

I did so in order to fund the transformation of an "only custom knife" collection. I then realized that I still have a soft spot for production knives, and am now on my way back to re-purchasing what I had before.

Just because you own customs doesn't mean you'll stop wanting to own cheaper knives. A tough, and expensive lesson!

One knife I particularly miss is the Benchmade AFCK 806 in M390, WTF was I thinking selling that beaut?!?!
 
At the time I didn't know what I had.....

Microtech.... It was coming out of the handle IE tip pointing out and that joker was SHARP. Something wasn't right and the blade detent or whatever had failed completely but would still fire. One day, After it snagged my hand I garbage canned it. I had it given to me when I was maybe 15, this was when I was about 23 I threw it out.

Lost a higher end Boker as well........ Ughhhh
