★ Falchion Knife | Ultraviolet (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

The appeal of this Falchion is its restraint: dark grey paint over most of the knife and a single strong purple accent where the hand rests. Minimal Wear can show the first faint marks near the tip and spine, but at normal viewing distance it is hard to tell apart from the cleanest grade. It is a sensible choice for buyers who want a nearly untouched look without chasing the narrow top band.

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

Solid Color: a single colour without a pattern; wear dulls it evenly and rubs it off along the edges.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Factory New, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

Appearance in Minimal Wear

The curved clip-point blade is painted a flat dark grey that reads almost black. The bolster and the front section of the handle carry a solid block of saturated purple, which breaks the dark silhouette where the hand sits.

Small light scuffs may appear near the tip and along the spine of the blade. The cutting edge and the handle remain dark and intact. The purple parts are still clean. At normal distance the knife looks almost identical to Factory New.

What to look at before you buy

• Compare the float position within the wear grade, as low and high floats of the same grade can look quite different on the blade.
• Check the corners of the purple bolster for chips if you want the accent to look clean.
• Decide whether you need StatTrak™ and check for a name tag before buying.
