The knife market, like most collectible markets right now, is in shambles with most production knives reselling for 50% or less NIB or LNIB so most sellers are buying in groups or resale instead of retail. This leaves stock on shelves at msrp. Then flippers and/or people like you see them on shelves and don’t want to buy furthering the problem. It’s safe to say that if you buy a knife you really love and disassociate from the market, collectibility is the same. Just don’t over buy or buy because you think it’ll sell out.
cant say i would pay 500 bucks for that especially with those ergos but i can understand the appeal of having a nicer utility blade holder i was even shopping around for some myself the other day
@@Momo-hy7qj i was just looking at oknife and civivi makes an elementum blade holder. of course they're nowhere near as nice but its like 30 bucks and 50 bucks i think respectively and still button locks that ride on bearings
