Gut Knife | Marble Fade

★ Gut Knife | Marble Fade is a CS2 knife skin with a glossy, multicolored blade and a distinctive gut hook. Red, blue, purple, and yellow-gold marbling contrasts with a comparatively plain reddish-brown handle. The look suits players who prefer vivid blade finishes with visible metallic texture. Factory New and Minimal Wear copies are available, including StatTrak™ versions.

Description

★ Gut Knife | Marble Fade brings a bright, marbled finish to the Gut Knife in CS2. The blade's gut hook creates a recognizable outline, with the colored finish extending around the hooked spine. Its palette combines warm red and gold areas with cooler blue, purple, and silver tones. Dark streaks interrupt those colors, giving the glossy surface a layered appearance rather than a uniform painted look. The reddish-brown handle provides a quieter contrast to the busy blade. This finish suits colorful loadouts and players who want the blade itself to carry the design. Buyers can choose standard or StatTrak versions without moving beyond the available Factory New and Minimal Wear exteriors. Individual listings are worth comparing for exact float value, version, and the visible arrangement of colors.

History and Origin

★ Gut Knife | Marble Fade was released in CS:GO on January 8, 2015. It arrived through the Chroma Case Skins update. Valve created the finish, rather than a community designer. The Chroma Case was its original case source. The Chroma 2 Case and Chroma 3 Case also offer routes to obtaining this knife through case openings. Valve retired the rare drop pool on December 17, 2025, ending new drops for these source cases. Existing cases can still be bought on the market and opened, despite their retired drop status. Today, buying an existing skin or arranging a player trade provides an alternative to opening one of those cases.

Finish Style

Marble Fade uses the Anodized Multicolored finish style, giving the blade a colorful metallic appearance. Black and silver metallic paint forms the underlying treatment, with a marbled surface beneath a multicolored candy coating. Dark, irregular wisps run through the colors and add texture to the glossy blade. Red follows the upper spine and wraps around the gut hook. Blue covers much of the broad lower face, while pale silver sits near the cutting edge. Purple appears toward the tip, and yellow-gold surrounds the blade base and exposed metal beside the handle. The reddish-brown handle has grain-like streaks and three small blue-gray fasteners. This contrast keeps the visual detail concentrated on the blade while leaving the handle comparatively restrained.

Float Value

The float value of ★ Gut Knife | Marble Fade ranges from 0.00 to 0.08. It comes in Factory New and Minimal Wear, with no Field-Tested, Well-Worn, or Battle-Scarred exterior. StatTrak™ versions are available; version availability is separate from cosmetic condition.

Rarity and Popularity

★ Gut Knife | Marble Fade has the Covert rarity grade. Its stated chance from the Chroma Case is 0.0085%, which should not be treated as a shared figure for every source case. Professional players Zeus, DANK1NG, and Dima have owned this knife.

Why it’s Popular:

• Glossy marbling combines warm and cool blade colors

• The gut hook gives the colored blade a distinctive outline

• A restrained handle balances the busy metallic finish

• Factory New, Minimal Wear, and StatTrak options accommodate different preferences

Price Range

The live ★ Gut Knife | Marble Fade price range is $99.00 to $350.00. These bounds cover the whole skin, not a particular exterior or version. Factory New and Minimal Wear listings should be compared separately, with standard and StatTrak status checked alongside condition. A useful CS2 skin price comparison also considers the exact float and visible finish on the individual knife. When buying, selling, or trading, judge the specific copy rather than treating the overall range as a fixed quote for every variant.

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

Open a Chroma Case, Chroma 2 Case, or Chroma 3 Case for a chance at this knife. These cases no longer drop, but existing cases can still be bought and opened. The stated chance from the Chroma Case is 0.0085%, so opening a case does not ensure this particular result.

3. Buy on the Steam Community Market

★ Gut Knife | Marble Fade can be bought as an existing item on the Steam Community Market. Check the listing's exterior and whether it is a standard or StatTrak version. Buying a listed copy allows the buyer to select an available exterior rather than depend on a case result.

4. Trade with Other Players

The knife can also be obtained through a trade with another player. Compare the offered copy's exterior, float, and StatTrak status before accepting, using current prices as context rather than a fixed quote.

Trading and Investment Considerations

Retired case drops limit replenishment of its source cases, although openings of existing cases can still introduce more knives. Listings include standard Factory New and Minimal Wear copies alongside a StatTrak Minimal Wear option, so variant matching matters when comparing trades. Without established price-history or listing-volume evidence, short-term resale strength remains uncertain.

Reasons it Holds Value

• No new drops for its source cases

• Ownership by Zeus, DANK1NG, and Dima

• Valve-created finish with distinctive metallic marbling

• Factory New and Minimal Wear choices

• Standard and StatTrak versions support different collecting preferences

The editorial investment rating is medium-to-good, supported by retired source cases, documented professional ownership, and its distinctive finish. Existing cases can still produce more copies, while uncertain resale demand remains the main risk to any expectation of appreciation.
