★ Kukri Knife | Stained (Well-Worn)

Skin overview

On a Well-Worn Kukri Knife | Stained the patina is broken up by wide areas of bare steel along the blade. The blotches remain in the middle of the flat, so the stained character is still there, only rougher. It suits buyers who like a knife that looks heavily used.

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

Patina: an aged metal surface; wear is part of the design, so the gap between qualities is less visible.

Appearance in Well-Worn

The finish covers the curved blade with a forced patina: a pale steel base with irregular grey and steel-blue blotches, each with a darker outline. Near the cutting edge the metal looks lighter and more polished, while the flat and the notched spine carry the densest staining.

Wide bare steel areas spread from the edge and tip into the flat, and the spine is largely worn. Remaining blotches gather mid-blade and near the guard. In game the blade looks much lighter and patchy. The grip and guard show no pattern loss because they carry none.

Well-Worn wear: float 0.38–0.45

The whole float range of ★ Kukri Knife | Stained is 0–1; Well-Worn takes the 0.38–0.45 segment (7% of the scale). Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.
