Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The narrow blade is coated in mottled spray-paint of black, charcoal and smoky grey, with lighter streaks running along its length. The bolster and the small guard quillons carry the same dark tones, so the front of the knife reads as one piece.

Battle-Scarred leaves much of the blade as bare steel with scattered dark remnants. The bolster, quillons and pommel are worn heavily, and the handle shows broad scratched areas. In game the knife reads as grey metal with burnt-looking spots, which still suits the theme. Fragments of the smoky pattern survive mainly on the handle.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within its grade, since lower values keep more paint on the edge and tip.
• Inspect the blade edge, tip, quillons and pommel first, as these parts lose paint before the rest.
• Compare a few copies, because the random placement of light and dark blotches changes how the handle looks.
• Look for a name tag and decide whether it fits your taste, since stickers cannot be applied to knives.
