The most expensive CSGO knife is the Factory New StatTrak™ Karambit Case Hardened with an extremely rare "Blue Gem" pattern, which sold for approximately $1.4 million in 2023. This particular knife features an exceptionally rare 387 pattern index with nearly 100% blue coloring on both sides.

What makes this knife so valuable is the combination of several rare attributes. First, it's a StatTrak™ version, which tracks the number of kills. Second, it's in Factory New condition, the highest possible quality state. Finally, and most importantly, it has the coveted "Blue Gem" pattern, which is incredibly rare and highly sought after by collectors.

The blue coloring comes from the Case Hardened finish, which creates random patterns during the skin application process. The chance of getting a perfect blue pattern is extremely low, estimated at less than 1%. When this rare pattern appears on a premium knife like the Karambit, it creates one of the most valuable virtual items in gaming history.

Before this sale, the previous record for the most expensive CSGO knife was held by another Karambit Case Hardened Blue Gem, which sold for approximately $780,000 in 2021. These prices reflect the mature CSGO skin trading market and the high value collectors place on extremely rare patterns.

It's worth noting that prices for high-tier CSGO knives can fluctuate significantly based on market conditions, collector interest, and the overall state of the game's economy. However, Blue Gem patterns, especially on Karambits, consistently remain among the most expensive items in the CSGO marketplace.
