Usually if it's something I have only very basic knowledge of, that's what I'll say. It's not always saying "I don't know" if you really mean "I'm not certain".

It's more about being honest about your level of knowledge. Sometimes that means grey are or saying "I don't know, but I will find out." OR "I don't know, but let's get a hold of someone that does."

That would happen in more of a professional environment than a conversational one :o)
