Which costs more - your car payment or your nicest knife?

[jprime84]

I thought this would be an interesting poll. If your car is paid off, just go off of what the payments were before you paid it off.

This just made me realize I can afford that new car my wife needs

 

[Scurvy092]

I'm confused. You're asking if our most valuable knife is more expensive than one car payment?

 

[Leftytwogunz]

This is different.

My car is paid off, but as my average knife purchase is about $550, my highest being close to 2k that
far exceeds any car payment that I have ever had.

 

[Inazone]

Car payment, for the last two vehicles anyway. I think that has been a sort of subconscious limit for my knife purchases.

 

[Scurvy092]

I would need like a Ferrari in order for a one month car payment to be more.

Unless you buy a new car with one payment

My wife's MB E350 sport is in the low $500 range.... Which I use that as justification for any knife I want to buy.

 

[Scurvy092]

Unless you buy a new car with one payment

Which I just did hahah, used though. For like 2% of a Ferrari haha.

My car payment... By only about 10 bucks.

Yeah thats the idea. Obviously there will be people on both sides of it and I was wondering how it divided out.

 

[PG5768]

Don't have any car payments.

 

[BellaBlades]

I*think comparing the knife to rent or mortgage would make more sense.

We own both our vehicles. Payed cash for them.
But I payed only 300$ more for my jeep than my one and only EDC. You can say my wife has the really nice car. Or I just got a hell of a deal.

 

[Sonnydaze]

My car payment was about 450. My best folder is much more than that.

 

[ebidis]

Not only is my most expensive knife more than 1 car payment, but with all the money I've spent on knives, I could have bought a car.

 

[Peter Hartwig]

While I don't have any car payments now, I have never had one anywhere near what I have paid for knives.

 

[flarp]

Of the cars I've had, I've always bought them outright. So, my "car payment" is waaaaay more than I've spent on any individual knife.

 

[Bludgeon]

$500 for my best blade and my highest car payment was $200 back when I financed vehicles.

 

[Popsickle]

It used to be the knife was more expensive, but im making a point to change that in hopes of a 2015 Mustang GT

This may be true, but that car would probably wear out long before your knives do. See? I could justify spending money on knives all day long...
