Will a thousand-dollar budget even buy a Karambit in three years?
Worrying about inflation in the skin market is a real concern for anyone who isn't a "whale" with an endless supply of funds to throw at the screen. I am trying to plan a roadmap for my inventory so I can eventually trade up to a Karambit without having to add more cash later on. It seems like the "floor" for a decent knife keeps rising every six months, and I’m worried that by the time I have my thousand dollars saved up, the only thing I’ll be able to afford is a rusty gut knife. Is it better to buy a mid-tier knife now and hope it appreciates, or should I keep my funds in "liquid" items like cases and stickers until I have enough for the final dream blade?
