What knife do you regret selling?

I kinda regret returning a WC Starbenza I purchased in 2015. I wanted an insingo blade so I returned it for my Insingo KnifeArt Sebenza. I’m hindsight I would’ve kept the Starbenza
 
These were collateral damage from life long ago…

The three pieces I sold are not that rare, but definitely sold them for less than I what I should have.

#1. Yojimbo II Spyderco; the action was oh so flawless
#2. Mnandi Raindrop Damascus burl
#3. Davison folder that I won't be buying a replacement of as his prices tripled in recent months for ... :D no reason

I would miss that Mnandi also.😟
 
an old Busse Combat steelheart ergo zero tolerance blank with serrations and an EU 17 style handle.

I'll miss it every so often but whatever
 
Two come to mind. First was the Umnumzaan. But the second stings the most as it is now discontinued, but the Spyderco Slysz Bowie... needed money and thought I'd eventually just get another one. Sadly that is no longer the case. Yes, I know you can find them on the secondary market but I just can't justify the cost. Ugh, now I'm sad...
 
Medford Viper
Medford Arktika
Spyderco Vallotton Sub-Hilt D/A
Large Regular Annual Sebenza Boxwood Elder burl
Small Sebenza Mammoth bark in ladder damascus.
Rockstead Shin DLC
Old pivot Star-tac Umnumzaan

OK, I'm depressed now. 😬
Don’t worry. You will find another Old pivot Star-tac Umnumzaan. I think I have three of them.
 
That’s an easy one. RJ Martin Overkill with Damascus inlays. I think I let it go for like $800. RJ told me he recalls only making like 3 or 4 and I’ve never seen another.

HEEEEY, I recently repurchased a vbr, such good knives man!
 
Helle Nord and I just sold it, I'm hoping the seller wants to return it for some reason because presently it's unavailable
 
So many…

Umnumzaan

There are more but I need a minute to dry my tears and regain my composure 😢
 
I think the one I most regret selling was my Benchmade AFCK that I bought in 1997. At the time I didn't appreciate it for what it was:(
I bought a new AFCK proto way back when and carried it around forever. I haven’t even looked at it in many years but you reminded me of how good that knife is. I think I’m going to sharpen and carry it for a bit.
