★ StatTrak™ Huntsman Knife | Black Laminate (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Black Laminate relies on texture rather than colour: a dark tanto blade and a grip striped in grey and black layers. The stonewashed blade already looks weathered by design, which helps it hide wear in Field-Tested. The difference shows mostly on the handle, where raised contours start to lose their sharp lines.

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 Field-Tested

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.

Wear becomes visible on the ridges between the finger grooves and along the handle edges, where pale layers dull. The spine teeth and blade edges may show light scraping, though the stonewash makes it subtle. In game the knife still reads as a dark blade with a striped grip. The central part of the laminate pattern stays mostly intact.
