Something interesting that I am realizing is that the knives posted here don’t necessarily represent the majority. I feel like every knife I see posted on this forum is +$1,500. Yet everyone in this thread has a limit of -$1,000. Not surprising now that I think about it, but it’s likely the expensive knives get posted and shown off, while the more modest ones don’t get the same lime light. At first glance you would think everyone here is rocking $25,000 knife collections. Reality is likely closer to $2,500.
As for myself, I have found I have both an upper limit and a lower limit. If it’s above $2,000, I’ll feel uncomfortable using it. If it’s below $1,000, I’ll feel bored using it. There’s definitely a sweet spot between $1,000 and $2,000 where it feels exciting and special, but not so fancy that I can’t use it. I think the only time I will break that rule is when I finally get a 240 River Jump.
One day
