Definitely uniqueness or limited production and how long ago they were made add to the value. Custom makers make one of the kinds and depending on who they are and their reputation can have a crazy value. It's not uncommon for some knives to sell for $5000. There seems to be a lot of newer people that are in the EDC gear that will buy $500 knives from better production companies. For example Chris Reeves knives has been in Business for 30 years, production is increasing all the time and they can't keep up with the demand they start around 500 bucks. Then there are the people that buy the production knives that are limited production runs from Benchmade, Kershaw, Spyderco and many different brands and after the run is done those could increase in value also.
