Understand the tastes of real collectors.
KnifeData turns years of secondary-market activity into decisions the trade can act on — what actually sold, which configurations collectors reward, and a canonical identity for every knife. Independent, provenance-tracked, and separated cleanly from asking-price noise.
One dataset, four decisions
Each audience reads the same evidence for a different call — priced, produced, underwritten, or listed.
Price to the market, turn faster
Buy and list against what actually sold, by variant and condition — not against the loudest asking price.
- Sold-price benchmarks per model and configuration
- Ask-vs-realized spread, so you spot overpriced inventory
- Liquidity and days-to-sale signals as coverage grows
Read demand and lifecycle
See which steels, sizes, and configurations collectors reward on the secondary market, and how a release holds value over time.
- Configuration-level demand and resale premiums
- Post-release value curves
- Verified, canonical spec records you control for facts
Defensible values, not guesses
Every estimate traces to real observations and a resolved identity, with confidence stated — evidence you can put in a file.
- Observed medians and ranges with sample sizes
- Identity resolution from messy descriptions
- Auditable provenance for every data point
Canonical identity & comps by API
Resolve free-text listings to a canonical knife, and surface comps and market values inside your own product.
- Identity resolution endpoint (text → canonical knife)
- Market value and recent-sales comps
- Bulk and real-time access as programs mature
Where collector money actually goes
A read on the current Class-A set — realized sales by published brand market. The licensed feed extends this across configurations, time, and the full ledger.
Depth, not just breadth
The public site shows the rights-cleared slice. Under license, the same discipline runs across the full ledger — configuration-level demand, resale premiums, ask-vs-realized spreads, and time series — delivered as benchmarks, reports, or an API keyed to your catalog.
Every figure keeps its provenance and confidence, so your team can defend the number as readily as read it.
Three ways to consume it
Sold-price benchmarks
Median, range, and confidence per model and configuration, refreshed as evidence lands. Delivered as dashboards or scheduled exports.
Demand & taste reports
Which configurations collectors reward, how releases hold value, and where the market is moving — quarterly or on demand.
Identity & comps API
Resolve free text to a canonical knife and pull market value plus recent-sales comps straight into your product.
