What's the most expensive knife you carry daily?

I carry a small sebenza because if I break it, crk will fix it. Also, it is easy to take apart and clean out if you get it too dirty. The blade is slicey enough to get everything I want done, but is also as thick as a mora companion. It is easy to open and close, and it makes me feel proud of owning it
 
These have got to be some of my fanciest/most expensive that I will still carry (well, need to get the action set on the PM2 of maplewood first as I just cannot do compression lock changes, had Metonboss install those Ti ones but the maker of the wood scales is in Finland...)
The most expensive is the Espada XL at bottom, $300, but my Ti PM2 is very close, as was the full milled copper one. I really hope to get the wood one operational soon, as it is the most beautiful to me.

My most expensive knife is the one that goes into my heavy use EDC rotation: Hinderer Knives XM-18 Skinny Generation 6. If I owned a Christ Reeves Sebenza it would do the same.
 
Maybe my Arno Bernard Sr, or microtech SBK, microtech combat troodon. Nothing over $500. Because I don't really own anything more expensive.

Really though lately my daily is a Spyderco shaman, Spyderco Native chief Cpm-m4, and a utx-85. So the total is kind of expensive.
 
I carry and use all my knives, with the most expensive being a Koenig Arius. I doubt I'll own a more expensive knife because that's about the limit of what I feel comfortable using.

my most expensive daily carry is my Esee4 with the black 3d g10 handles.
second is my Benchmade Griptilian knifecenter exclusive.
 
Biryukov #12 and Cheburkov Strizh.
 
I do not wear man-jewelry. Oh . . .At weddings and funerals I may wear an heirloom pocket watch on a chain with a three piece suit. On those occasions, my inside jacket pocket may hold a Hen and Rooster pseudo-pen knife (~$15)

otherwise . . .I don't have the latest Fit-Bit or a wristwatch looking thing that blue-tooths to my phone or hearing aids, and so on.

Same goes for my EDC knife. My daily carry is a Leatherman Wave Plus in a horizontal belt sheath. The nylon sheath has the logo subdued with a marking pen. That rig cost me around $100, maybe $120 . . . give or take. One day, I'd like to have some version of the CRK Sebenza though.

The " most expensive" cutlery that I have bought in the past was gifted to an active duty Marine about to deploy. They were a Randall #16-1, their so-called "Special Fighter", and a CRK Green Beret. Those were EDC for him while in harm's way.

Beautiful collection, just curious why you remove the tweezers from the SAK’s? I find them and the toothpick pretty useful.

Oh, that's me going through some color choices and forgetting to pick one before taking the pic, got some red, blue, black ones. I heartily agree and keep those thangs on me when I am out - once snapped a toothpick to the top cap peice to place a needle and thread in the space. But yes, they come in handy for me regularly, they are underrated, and I am sad when a scale type nixes them, like my G10 Rambler and Executive.
