You see, I hear the young’uns talkin’ ’bout this here Counter-Strike thing. Sounds like a right ruckus to me. But they get all excited ’bout these… these knives. Fancy knives in the game, ain’t real, but they cost real money! Lord have mercy. Most expensive knife, they say. Like to know what the big deal is, myself.
They go on and on ’bout somethin’ called a Karambit. Sounds like a fancy word for a hooked blade, if you ask me. And this one, they call it “Blue Gem.” Blue as the sky after a rain, I reckon. This here Counter-Strike most expensive knife, they say it’s worth more than my whole house! More than all the houses in town, probably. One and a half million dollars! Can you believe that? For somethin’ you can’t even hold in your hand.

- That Karambit, the Blue Gem one, is the big talk.
- One point five million dollars!
- Not even real!
Now, I’ve seen a lot of things in my time, but this takes the cake. A million and a half dollars for a picture of a knife in a game. These kids these days, I swear. They say it is the most expensive knife in CS2. I don’t know what CS2 is, but it sure sounds expensive. They say only a few people got this here knife. Less than 1% they said. That make sense I guess. If it were easy to get, it wouldn’t be so special, would it?
They talk about other knives, too. Another one called a Butterfly Knife. Sounds pretty, I suppose. They say it’s like the Karambit but different. This one’s got a red pattern on it, somethin’ called “Crimson Web.” Sounds like a spider made it. Not as much as the blue one, but still a lot. They sure do love their fancy names for these things. This Butterfly Knife is also one of the most expensive knife.
And get this – they say these knives are rare. Like findin’ a four-leaf clover in a field of weeds. They got these patterns, they call ’em. And the blue one, the Blue Gem, is the rarest of them all. Like I said, somethin’ ’bout the color blue, I reckon. Makes it worth more than gold, apparently. These kids spend a lot money for this kind of most expensive knife, like the blue one. They must really like blue.
I remember my pa used to whittle. Made us all sorts of things out of wood. Little animals, whistles, even a little doll for my sister once. He would’ve had a heart attack if he heard ’bout these prices. A million dollars for a knife that ain’t even real. He wouldn’t understand this Counter-Strike most expensive knife thing at all.
- Butterfly Knife is another expensive one.
- It has a red “Crimson Web” pattern.
- Still very expensive, these kids say.
These young folks, they get all worked up ’bout these Counter-Strike knives. They trade ’em, they show ’em off. Like a bunch of roosters in a hen house, all puffed up and proud. It’s a whole world I don’t understand. But I guess it makes ’em happy. And who am I to judge how they spend their money? Even if it is on somethin’ as silly as a most expensive knife that you can’t even use to peel a potato.
I heard them saying somethin’ ’bout other guns, too. AK-47, somethin’ like that. And a Five-Seven. No idea what those are, but they say they got these blue patterns, too. Just like the Blue Gem knife. Makes ’em worth more, I guess. These blue things, they are really something in this game. It is hard to get, they say. They call them Blue Gems, too. This Counter-Strike thing, it’s full of surprises.
So, this Karambit Blue Gem, it’s the king of the hill. The top dog. The most expensive knife in this whole Counter-Strike business. A million and a half dollars. It’s a strange world we live in, ain’t it? A right strange world indeed. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I got some beans to snap. And I ain’t gonna use no million-dollar knife to do it, neither. My old kitchen knife works just fine, thank you very much. It might not be the most expensive knife, but it gets the job done.
