★ StatTrak™ Huntsman Knife | Black Laminate (Factory New)

Skin overview

★ Huntsman Knife | Black Laminate pairs a dark stonewashed blade with a layered laminate handle in light grey and black. The handle's swirling contours around the finger grooves are the detail most people recognise. In Factory New the laminate lines are crisp and the blade keeps an even, mottled dark grey.

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

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

How the skin looks in Factory New

The blade is dark grey with a mottled stonewashed texture, a tanto point, a long fuller groove and a row of saw teeth along the spine. The guard and pommel are dark metal with small black bolts.

The laminate layers on the grip are sharp and evenly contrasted, with no scuffs on the edges. The blade's stonewash texture is uniform from tanto point to guard. In game the knife reads as dark and tidy, with the pale grip loops standing out clearly. Everything, including the bolts and pommel, looks clean.
