★ Huntsman Knife | Forest DDPAT (Factory New)

Skin overview

★ Huntsman Knife | Forest DDPAT covers the tanto blade and guard in a digital camouflage of beige, olive green and brown pixels, with the black grip left plain. In Factory New the pixel blocks stay crisp along the whole blade and the edge carries no visible steel. This is the cleanest form of a restrained, military-style finish.

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

Hydrographic: the pattern is applied as a film over the metal; wear rubs it down to the base, starting with raised parts.

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

Appearance in Factory New

The hydrographic Forest DDPAT pattern covers the whole tanto blade, the sawback teeth on the spine and the metal guard, in small square pixels of beige, pale grey, olive green and dark brown. The pattern runs without a fixed layout, so the placement of green and brown clusters shifts from copy to copy. The handle stays black with a textured surface and deep finger grooves, framed by the camouflaged guard and the pommel. On worn copies the paint first leaves the cutting edge, the tip and the saw teeth, then the spine and the edges of the guard, exposing silver steel underneath.

The camouflage is complete across the blade, teeth and guard, with sharp pixel edges. Because the float range begins inside this grade, Factory New copies sit close to its upper limit, yet no wear is visible in normal play. The black grip looks clean and even.
