Several factors influence the price of CS2 knives, including knife type, pattern, and float value. Believe it or not, you get a well-under 1% chance of getting a valuable <a href=\"https:\/\/skinsmonkey.com\/trade\/knife-skins?r=blog&c=post-link-trade\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">knife skin<\/a> every time you open <a href=\"http:\/\/skinsmonkey.com\/blog\/how-to-get-csgo-cases\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CS2 weapon cases<\/a>. This makes them some of the rarest CS2 skins available in the game, and accordingly, they are the <a href=\"http:\/\/skinsmonkey.com\/blog\/most-expensive-cs2-skins\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">most expensive CS2 skins<\/a> in the game.<\/p>\r\n<p>The 1% chance applies to any knife in general though, meaning that your chances of opening a rare and <strong>expensive CS2 knife skin<\/strong> are even lower. In most cases, you will probably open a <a href=\"http:\/\/skinsmonkey.com\/blog\/5-cheapest-csgo-knife-skins\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">cheap CS2 knife<\/a>, although even the cheaper variants are worth a couple of hundred dollars. The float value of a knife skin can significantly impact its price, as lower float values often indicate better condition and higher desirability.<\/p>\r\n<p>Considering all of this, it is probably <strong><em>wiser to actually go ahead and buy the expensive knives you want from a dedicated CS2 trading site like SkinsMonkey.com, instead of relying on chance or luck<\/em><\/strong> to land the highly-demand knife skin naturally.<\/p>\r\n<h2>What is the Most Expensive Knife in CS2?<\/h2>\r\n<p>The <strong>most expensive CS2 knife<\/strong> sold is the <strong>Karambit Case Hardened skin,<\/strong> in the Blue Gem seed variant.

However, the Karambit Case Hardened with the Blue Gem pattern takes it to a whole other level. The rare pattern of the Blue Gem is what makes it so valuable to any collector. In fact, this rare knife skin is currently the single most valuable and most expensive CS2 skin on the Market.
