★ Classic Knife | Safari Mesh (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Safari Mesh dresses the Classic Knife in a low-contrast camouflage of olive green with sandy, stencil-like blotches. In Field-Tested the spray paint starts to break along the edge and spine, letting bare metal show through, which suits the rough military character of the pattern. Because the finish is plain to begin with, the scuffs read as natural field use rather than damage.

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.

Appearance in Field-Tested

The blade is painted in olive and sage green with darker tonal clouds, while pale sandy blotches with ragged, wavy outlines run along the spine and through the middle of the blade. The sharpened edge and the tip carry a lighter, almost metallic band that frames the camouflage.

The cutting edge and tip show visible scratches with metal coming through, and wear begins along the spine. The edges of the guard may show light scuffs. In game the camouflage still dominates, with a lighter worn band along the edge. The middle of the blade and most of the handle still look clean.
