The most expensive CSGO knife is the Factory New Karambit Case Hardened with a rare blue gem pattern (#387), which sold for $1.4 million in 2023. This legendary skin features an extremely rare blue-dominant pattern covering most of the blade, making it one of the most sought-after collectibles in gaming history.

What makes this particular knife so valuable is the combination of three key factors: its Factory New condition (the highest quality possible), the prestigious Karambit model, and most importantly, the extremely rare blue gem pattern that covers approximately 98% of the blade's surface.

The blue gem pattern is created through a random number generator when opening cases, making it incredibly rare to obtain. Pattern #387 is considered the most desirable of all possible patterns, featuring an almost perfect blue coverage that collectors refer to as "God tier."

Prior to this record-breaking sale, the most expensive CSGO knife was another Karambit Case Hardened with pattern #661, which sold for approximately $400,000. These prices demonstrate the incredible value that rare CSGO skins can command in the collector's market.

It's worth noting that prices for high-tier CSGO knives can fluctuate significantly based on market conditions, buyer interest, and the overall state of the game's economy. However, blue gem Karambits consistently rank among the most expensive items in the CSGO marketplace due to their extreme rarity and desirability among collectors.

For context, most regular CSGO knives typically sell for between $50 and $1,000, making this $1.4 million sale particularly remarkable in the gaming collectibles space.
