★ Survival Knife | Forest DDPAT (Factory New)

Skin overview

★ Survival Knife | Forest DDPAT is a Covert knife with a pixel camouflage of tan, brown and green covering the blade, paired with a plain green handle. In Factory New the pixel blocks stay sharp and the colour fields keep their full contrast from the tip to the serrated section. It suits a buyer who wants the camouflage exactly as designed, with no bare steel showing.

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

Hydrographic: the pattern is applied as a film over the metal; wear rubs it down to the base, starting with raised parts.

Other qualities of this skin: Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

Appearance in Factory New

The blade is covered from tip to guard in a digital camouflage of sand, light brown, dark brown and green square blocks, including the area around the long slot cut through the blade. The gut hook near the tip and the serrated section by the guard are painted in the same pattern, with the serration teeth showing steel at their points. The handle is a solid green composite with recessed panels and two hex nut bolts, which gives the knife a calm, single-tone base. On worn copies the paint goes first from the cutting edge, the tip, the gut hook and the serrations, then spreads along the spine and the slot edges, while the handle changes the least.

The pixel blocks keep crisp edges and full colour across the whole blade. The cutting edge, tip and gut hook show no visible loss of paint. In game the camouflage reads evenly and the green handle looks fresh. This grade starts at the very bottom of the float range, so copies sit in a narrow band.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits inside the wear grade, since a low float in Field-Tested or Well-Worn keeps noticeably more paint on the tip and edge.
• Inspect the cutting edge, the tip, the gut hook and the serrations, as these lose paint first.
• The pattern placement shifts between copies but has little effect on the look of this camouflage, so it rarely needs to be a priority.
• Look for a name tag and decide whether you want a StatTrak™ version, as both change which copy fits you.

Who should buy Factory New

• Collectors who want the camouflage with sharp pixels and no bare steel.
• Players who inspect their knife often and want it to look new every time.
• Choose this grade if a fully intact finish matters more to you than the price.
