I feel like the 400 dollar mark is where flipping quality starts to plateau. Like brs stuff or sentinels really do feel like they’ve had flipping quality maximized. I’ve never gotten to flip a krake raken but it seems like such an amazing outlier in the market. Excited to get my hands on one eventually

Tbh I got my grail in early August. Jimpy Designs Sentinel just clicked for me in terms of pure look of design and heard so many great things about it. Flipping it only solidified my love for it! It's a grade B so it isn't cosmetically clean BUT as you say it's something meant to be used and I flip it almost constantly.

Would be fun to try out an expensive one someday, I have a Heron Featherlight and Glidr Arctic and that's enough for me. If I ever get a grail it would be a custom from Heibel Knives, a trainer in damasteel and harpoon shaped blade.

If money was no object, I would buy a Shinogi, then an EX10 and then quite a bit below that maybe on Orca or a V2 Monarch. The most expensive thing that I will probably ACTUALLY buy at some point is like a 5150 or a Sentinel. But the next things I’m buying are a beater trainer (Maybe Squid Trainer, not sure) and then probably a Kraken or a SlifT. Maybe a Maryn or Maryn Light, but it’s so far away I haven’t decided yet.

i'm a dude with a massive collection(50+ strong) so i know this first hand owning multiple knives. the prince customs syn is a 750 dollar knife and its something else, machined to perfection but i'm more then satisfied flipping the toa Poseidon for example but i still pull out the prince customs a bit actually pretty unique experience and its one i will never get rid of, its one i got due to the kindness of the community, i cant say it any other way building up this massive collection and every experience is unique from the last, this ones light, this ones heavy, this ones in between, this ones blade biased, that's unusual, this one has the thicccccest handles i've ever seen(my cold steel FGX) this one has a tanto blade that's amazing, this one is somewhat rare to see, this one was an impulse buy why is it still in there? its just so much that my collection is so bug but ill be the first to say, you don't need a massive collection, not that your never gonna gain a massive collection its just you don't need one, one good flipper is all you need, heck ill take it further, one cheapo is all you need to enter the hobby.

If you break it down for a lot of the higher priced knives made by single makers, they often actually make less then minimum wage when you compare the hours spent making a knife vs the price.
