★ Bowie Knife | Safari Mesh (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

This Bowie Knife wears a plain spray-painted camouflage in olive and sand, with a mesh pattern that is the main recognisable detail. In Field-Tested the paint starts to break on the edges, so bare metal shows along the spine, the tip and the guard. The used look fits the survival theme of the knife rather well.

Item type: knife. Covert is the top weapon rarity: usually the most prominent items of a collection or case.

Spray-Paint: paint sprayed over the metal; scratches and scuffs appear early but look natural.

Other qualities of this skin: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

How the skin looks in Field-Tested

The whole knife is spray-painted in khaki and olive green with lighter sandy areas, and a hexagonal mesh stencil runs across the blade like chain-link fencing. The clip-point blade carries the clearest part of the mesh, while the serrated spine and the tip share the same muted tone.

Field-Tested shows clear scuffs along the spine teeth, the tip and the cutting edge, with small bare spots on the ends of the guard and the pommel. The mesh on the middle of the blade is still readable, though slightly faded in places. In game the worn edges are visible when the knife is drawn or inspected. The flat of the blade and most of the handle keep their paint.

What to check before buying

• Look at the float position within the wear grade, since a low float keeps the tip and spine teeth noticeably cleaner.
• Inspect the tip, the saw teeth and the ends of the guard, as these lose paint first.
• Check how much of the mesh remains on the flat of the blade on worn grades.
• Note whether the knife is StatTrak™ or carries a name tag, since both change what you are paying for.
