★ Paracord Knife | Marble Fade (Factory New)

Skin overview

★ Paracord Knife | Marble Fade is a fixed-blade survival knife with a candy-coated blade that shifts from blue at the tip through yellow and red to purple near the guard, crossed by dark marble veining. In Factory New the gradient stays glossy and continuous, and the colour transitions look sharp from tip to spine. This is the grade for buyers who want the finish exactly as it was painted.

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

Anodized Multicolored: several colours in the metal coating; it wears little, the colours only dull with use.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Minimal Wear.

Appearance in Factory New

The blade carries the whole finish: the tip is blue, the middle turns yellow and orange-red, and the section toward the guard fades into purple and blue. Dark grey and black marble veining runs across all the colours, giving the surface a stone-like texture. The long slot along the spine is cut through the coloured area, and the guard has a gold-yellow tone. The handle is wrapped in grey paracord, with a small blue-purple pommel at the end. On worn copies the paint goes first on the cutting edge, the tip and the spine, then around the slot and the guard; the placement of the colours differs from copy to copy.

In Factory New the blade shows no visible wear: the edge, tip and spine keep their colour. The candy coating looks even and glossy, and the marble veins stay crisp over the gradient. In game the knife reads as a clean burst of blue, yellow, red and purple. The paracord handle and pommel look untouched.
