Flip Knife | Slaughter

The ★ Flip Knife | Slaughter is a CS2 knife skin with a curved red blade and contrasting metallic details. Dark red bands and lighter pink-red areas create a layered pattern across the blade's face. Its vivid finish suits red-themed loadouts and players who prefer a patterned blade over a plain coating. Factory New, Minimal Wear and Field-Tested copies are available, including StatTrak™ versions.

Description

The ★ Flip Knife | Slaughter brings a red Anodized Multicolored finish to the Flip Knife in CS2. Its back-swept blade narrows toward a sharp point, giving the patterned surface a curved outline. Alternating red tones form angular shapes and sweeping bands rather than a uniform field of color. A silver cutting edge provides a clear contrast against the painted blade. The dark gray-green handle adds a quieter visual element beneath the busy finish, with small red details linking the parts together. This combination suits players who want a colorful knife without extending the dense pattern across the entire handle. Buyers can choose regular or StatTrak versions within the available exterior range. Listing comparisons should consider the float value, exterior, version and item images rather than treating every Slaughter copy as interchangeable.

History and Origin

The ★ Flip Knife | Slaughter was released in CS:GO on August 14, 2013, with the Arms Deal update. Valve created the skin rather than a community designer. Its original case was the CS:GO Weapon Case, which remains an acquisition route through existing stock. Other sources include the eSports 2013 Case and Operation Bravo Case. The CS:GO Weapon Case 2, eSports 2013 Winter Case and Winter Offensive Weapon Case also contain this knife. Further sources are the CS:GO Weapon Case 3, Operation Phoenix Weapon Case and eSports 2014 Summer Case. The Operation Vanguard Weapon Case and Revolver Case complete its case availability. These cases no longer receive new drops following Valve's retirement of the rare drop pool on December 17, 2025. Existing cases can still be bought and opened, while individual knives remain obtainable through marketplace purchases and player trades.

Finish Style

Slaughter uses the Anodized Multicolored finish style to give the blade a patterned metallic appearance. Aluminum and chrome paints with differing reflectivities form the underlying striped treatment. A tomato-red candy coating brings those contrasting materials into the finish's red palette. Across the blade's face, lighter pink-red areas alternate with deeper red zebra-like bands. Overlapping angular shapes intersect with longer sweeping stripes, creating a dense composition that follows the curved silhouette. A bright silver cutting edge and scalloped silver notches near the base interrupt the red surface. The dark gray-green handle combines recessed grooves with a closely dotted texture toward its rounded end. Red fasteners and accents along the handle's outer edge connect it visually to the blade. The simpler handle keeps the patterned blade as the main focus without making the entire knife equally busy.

Float Value

The ★ Flip Knife | Slaughter has a float range of 0.01 to 0.26. It is available in Factory New, Minimal Wear and Field-Tested, but not Well-Worn or Battle-Scarred. StatTrak versions are supported, while exterior and float describe the copy's condition separately from its version.

Rarity and Popularity

The knife has the Covert rarity grade. Its stated drop chance from the CS:GO Weapon Case is 0.0039%, a figure that should not be generalized to every source case. Documented professional owners include olofmeister and FaNg, providing an ownership connection without establishing the strength of wider buyer demand.

Why it’s Popular:

• Layered red bands give the curved blade a distinctive appearance

• Silver details contrast clearly with the red finish

• A restrained handle balances the densely patterned blade

• Regular and StatTrak versions offer different buying options

Price Range

The live CS2 skin price range is $229.60 to $663.79. These bounds cover the whole item rather than a particular exterior or version. Factory New, Minimal Wear and Field-Tested listings should be compared separately, with the exact float checked within each exterior. Regular and StatTrak copies also need separate comparisons rather than an assumption that their asking prices align. Item images help buyers assess the visible stripe arrangement alongside the price before choosing a listing.

How to Obtain

1. Buy Directly through Eneba Skins

One of the fastest and most straightforward options is to purchase skins directly through Eneba Skins. You can browse available CS2 skins, compare prices, and choose the items that best fit your budget.

2. Open a Weapon Case

The knife can be obtained by opening a containing case, such as the CS:GO Weapon Case, Operation Bravo Case or Revolver Case. All listed source cases have stopped receiving new drops, but existing cases can still be bought and opened. An opening does not guarantee this particular knife, making a direct purchase the route for selecting a specific copy.

3. Buy on the Steam Community Market

The Steam Community Market provides a direct purchase route for the ★ Flip Knife | Slaughter without opening a case. Buyers should distinguish regular listings from StatTrak versions and confirm the listed exterior. Available item details and inspection images help assess whether a copy matches the intended condition and appearance.

4. Trade with Other Players

Player-to-player trading offers another way to acquire the knife using items offered in exchange. Both sides should confirm the exact exterior, float value and regular or StatTrak version before accepting. Comparing the proposed knife with current listings helps assess the trade without relying on the finish name alone.

Trading and Investment Considerations

The source cases no longer receive new drops, but opening existing stock can still add knives to circulation. Professional ownership provides some visibility, although it does not establish sustained demand or how quickly a copy will sell. Buyers planning to sell or trade should compare exterior, float, version and asking price rather than infer price growth from case retirement.

Reasons it Holds Value

• Retired source cases receive no new drops

• Documented ownership by olofmeister and FaNg

• Valve-created finish dating to the Arms Deal update

• Factory New and StatTrak options broaden buying choices

The editorial investment outlook is medium-to-good, supported by retired source-case drops and documented professional ownership. Existing case openings can still add supply, so discontinued drops do not make the knife itself a fixed-supply item. Sustained demand and price growth remain uncertain, making the purchase price important without implying dependable returns.
