★ Ursus Knife | Night Stripe (Factory New)

Skin overview

★ Ursus Knife | Night Stripe is a tanto-style survival knife sprayed in a muted night ops scheme of slate blue and grey. Soft diagonal stripes cross the blade, and the grip carries the same dark tone. In Factory New the stripes keep crisp tape-mask borders and the paint covers the blade edge to edge, so the cool, even colouring reads as intended.

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: Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

How the skin looks in Factory New

The blade is a tanto shape with a straight edge and a short serrated section near the guard, painted dark slate blue with wide, softly sprayed lighter stripes running diagonally across the flat. The pattern comes from tape masking, so the stripes have straight but slightly blurred borders. The guard and the rubberised grip are dark grey-blue, the grip covered in a dotted texture with faint traces of the same stripes, ending in a pommel with a lanyard hole. On worn copies the paint goes first from the cutting edge, the tip, the serrations and the spine, then from the raised edges of the guard and the pommel.

The paint covers the whole blade, including the edge and the tip, with no visible scratches. Stripe borders stay sharp and the colours are even from guard to point. In game the knife looks uniformly dark with clean light bands. The Factory New range for this skin is narrow and sits at its upper limit, so all copies look very similar.

Factory New wear: float 0.06–0.07

The whole float range of ★ Ursus Knife | Night Stripe is 0.06–0.8; Factory New takes the 0.06–0.07 segment (1% of the scale). Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

What to look at before you buy

• Check the float position within the wear grade, since paint loss on the edge and tip grows noticeably inside Field-Tested and Battle-Scarred.
• Look at the tip, the serrations and the cutting edge on the inspect screen, as these parts lose paint first.
• Compare how much of the striped pattern remains on the flat of the blade on worn copies.
• Decide whether you want StatTrak™ or a name tag, since the skin exists in both regular and StatTrak™ versions.
