What Makes a Knife the Best in MM2?
Value comes from demand and supply. Knives from retired events can't be unboxed again, so they hold their value longer than box knives. Looks matter too, since newer Chromas like Chroma Evergreen are FX weapons with custom holding animations and glowing lights.
Nik's Scythe isn't ranked here because only 7 copies exist and it never shows up in normal trades. For every tier, see our list of every MM2 knife and gun.
Best Knives in MM2 Ranked
Values are MM2.Rocks trade values as of October 2026. The ranking weighs value, tier, and supply.
1. Chroma Evergreen
The top knife at around 43K. It came from the retired 2023 Christmas Box and pairs with Chroma Evergun for the top Chroma set.
2. Chroma Alienbeam
Worth 23K, and it came from a retired Halloween box, so its supply is locked.
3. Traveler's Axe
The best Ancient knife at 7.9K and the final reward of the Halloween 2023 battle pass. It's worth more than every other tradable Ancient knife combined.
4. Chroma Sunset
Worth 7.5K, it came from the 2025 Summer Event at a 2% pull rate.
5. Celestial
The 20th tier of the 2024 Christmas Event for 98,000 Snow Tokens, according to the MM2 Wiki. It now trades for 2.3K.
6. Vampire's Axe
The final tier of the 2024 Halloween battle pass for 98,000 Candies, now worth 1.7K. It pairs with Vampire's Gun for the Vampire's Set.
7. Alienbeam
The best normal Godly knife at 2K, tied with Turkey, and the cheaper way to get the Alienbeam look.
8. Darksword
Worth 1.8K with steady demand, which makes it one of the easiest high-value Godlies to trade.
9. Cane Knife (2018)
Only a Rare, but at 950 it's worth more than most Godlies.
10. Latte
The top Legendary at 150, and an affordable start before you trade up.

Most knives on this list come from retired events, so trading is the main route. Check current values before every deal, since prices shift after updates.
Events add new top-tier knives, and the next one is Halloween 2026. Boxes drop Godlies at only 0.2%, so unboxing won't reliably get you one.
