★ Navaja Knife | Ultraviolet (Factory New)

Skin overview

★ Navaja Knife | Ultraviolet pairs a dark, nearly black blade with a solid purple handle, and in Factory New the contrast between the two is at its sharpest. The paint is even across the blade, bolster and grip, and the small purple pivot screw stands out cleanly against the dark metal. This skin's float range begins inside Factory New, so this grade is narrow and covers only the cleanest copies.

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: Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

Appearance in Factory New

The blade is coated in a dark, almost black paint with a slightly lighter bevel along the cutting edge. The bolster and pivot area are dark as well, accented by a purple pivot screw and a small purple pin. The handle is a solid, saturated purple with a dark screw near its curved end. There is no pattern, only clean blocks of colour, so the look depends entirely on how well the paint has held. On worn copies the paint goes first on the blade edge, the tip and the spine, then on the bolster edges and the curved butt of the handle.

The paint is complete on every part, with no visible scratches on the blade, bolster or handle. The edge bevel looks crisp and the purple grip is uniform from bolster to butt. In game the knife reads as a clean black blade on a bright purple handle. Since this grade sits at the very start of the skin's range, the difference between copies is minimal.

What to check before buying

• Check the float position within the wear grade, since solid paint shows every step of wear on the blade.
• Look at the tip and the cutting edge first, as these are the first places where bare metal appears.
• Inspect the curved end of the purple handle, which chips before the middle of the grip does.
• Pattern does not matter for this skin, so focus on the condition and on a name tag if there is one.
