★ StatTrak™ Classic Knife | Safari Mesh (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Safari Mesh is the most understated finish on the Classic Knife: olive and sand spray paint in a loose mesh pattern. In Battle-Scarred the blade shows large areas of exposed steel and the camouflage survives mostly in patches closer to the guard and on the handle. For many buyers this is simply the most accessible way to own the knife, and the worn steel fits its utilitarian style.

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

Spray-Paint: paint sprayed over the metal; scratches and scuffs appear early but look natural.

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

How the skin looks in Battle-Scarred

The blade is painted in olive and sage green with darker tonal clouds, while pale sandy blotches with ragged, wavy outlines run along the spine and through the middle of the blade. The sharpened edge and the tip carry a lighter, almost metallic band that frames the camouflage.

Much of the blade is bare steel, with the camouflage surviving in broken patches, mainly near the guard. The guard and handle show clear wear on edges and on the checkering. In game the knife reads as a metal blade with remnants of green paint. The range stops short of the most extreme wear, so some camouflage always remains.

Battle-Scarred wear: float 0.45–0.8

The whole float range of ★ StatTrak™ Classic Knife | Safari Mesh is 0.06–0.8; Battle-Scarred takes the 0.45–0.8 segment (47% of the scale). Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

• Decide whether you need StatTrak™, as both versions of this knife exist.
