Gut Knife | Slaughter

★ Gut Knife | Slaughter is a CS2 knife skin with a reflective red finish and a distinctive hooked blade. Contrasting zebra-like bands cover the metal, while a reddish-brown handle provides a quieter backdrop. The look suits players who prefer bold color and patterned blades. Factory New, Minimal Wear, and Field-Tested copies are available in standard and StatTrak™ versions.

Description

★ Gut Knife | Slaughter combines the Gut Knife's hooked profile with a patterned red finish in CS2. Its Anodized Multicolored finish gives the blade a metallic, reflective appearance rather than a flat painted look. Irregular bands break up the broad blade face with pale pink, bright red, and dark maroon. The reddish-brown handle adds flowing grain without competing with the blade's busy design. This combination suits red-focused loadouts and players who want their knife to provide a strong visual accent. Standard and StatTrak copies offer different ownership options while retaining the same underlying finish. Buyers can choose among Factory New, Minimal Wear, and Field-Tested exteriors. Inspecting the blade alongside its exact float value helps distinguish individual copies beyond the exterior label.

History and Origin

★ Gut Knife | Slaughter was released on August 14, 2013, with the CS:GO Weapon Case. Its debut formed part of the Arms Deal update in CS:GO. Valve created the finish, rather than a community designer. The Gut Knife's defining hook has practical origins in field dressing game. That feature also serves to cut fibrous materials, including rope, webbing, and safety belts. The finish is obtainable from additional cases, including Operation Bravo Case, Operation Phoenix Weapon Case, and Revolver Case. All eligible cases stopped receiving new drops when Valve retired the rare drop pool on December 17, 2025. Existing cases can still be bought and opened, while the finished knife remains obtainable through marketplaces and player trades.

Finish Style

Slaughter uses the Anodized Multicolored finish style to combine a metallic surface with contrasting bands. Aluminum and chrome paints provide different levels of reflectivity beneath the colored coating. A translucent tomato-red topcoat gives the blade its dominant color while preserving the underlying contrast. The visible pattern includes irregular zebra-like bands in pale pink, bright red, and dark maroon. These markings cover the broad blade face and continue along the hooked tip and notched spine. Bright highlights follow the curved cutting edge and appear across parts of the blade face. The reddish-brown handle shows flowing grain, three round silver fasteners, and a circular opening at the butt. Its comparatively plain appearance keeps visual attention on the patterned metal.

Float Value

The float value range for ★ Gut Knife | Slaughter is 0.01 to 0.26. Available exteriors are Factory New, Minimal Wear, and Field-Tested, with no Well-Worn or Battle-Scarred copies. Standard and StatTrak versions are available, but no Souvenir version exists; version availability is separate from a copy's cosmetic condition.

Rarity and Popularity

★ Gut Knife | Slaughter has Covert rarity, which is separate from its exterior condition. Its specific drop chance from the CS:GO Weapon Case is 0.0039%, making an opening an uncertain acquisition route. Professional player rallen owns this skin, and standard and StatTrak copies are available through market listings.

Why it’s Popular:

• Reflective red blade with contrasting zebra-like bands

• Distinctive hooked blade profile

• Grained handle balances the busy metal finish

• Standard and StatTrak options across the available exteriors

Price Range

The live ★ Gut Knife | Slaughter price range is $93.38 to $1,524.41. These bounds cover the whole skin, not a fixed exterior or version. Compare Factory New, Minimal Wear, and Field-Tested listings using both the exterior label and exact float. Check standard and StatTrak listings separately so the version matches the intended purchase. For a useful CS2 skin price comparison, match the version and condition before deciding where to buy or how to price a sale.

2. Open a Weapon Case

Eligible cases include CS:GO Weapon Case, eSports 2013 Case, Operation Bravo Case, and CS:GO Weapon Case 2. Other options are eSports 2013 Winter Case, Winter Offensive Weapon Case, CS:GO Weapon Case 3, and Operation Phoenix Weapon Case. eSports 2014 Summer Case, Operation Vanguard Weapon Case, and Revolver Case also contain it. Openings rely on existing case supplies and never guarantee this knife.

3. Buy on the Steam Community Market

Buy ★ Gut Knife | Slaughter on the Steam Community Market by choosing the desired exterior and standard or StatTrak version. Check the listing details and inspect the knife before purchasing.

4. Trade with Other Players

Player-to-player trading provides another route to acquiring ★ Gut Knife | Slaughter in exchange for agreed items. Verify the received knife's exterior, float value, and StatTrak status before accepting the trade.

Trading and Investment Considerations

Retired cases receive no replenishment from drops, although existing cases can still produce additional Slaughter knives. Current listings include standard and StatTrak copies, but professional ownership alone does not establish broad demand or quick resale. Compare matching exteriors, floats, and versions when buying, selling, or trading rather than treating every copy within the price range as interchangeable.

Reasons it Holds Value

• Eligible cases no longer receive new drops

• Distinctive reflective red finish

• Standard and StatTrak ownership options

• Owned by professional player rallen

★ Gut Knife | Slaughter receives a medium investment rating, supported by retired case supply and its distinctive finish. Existing openings can still add knives, while professional ownership does not demonstrate sustained market-wide demand. Without an established price trend, it is better considered a cosmetic purchase with resale potential than a predictable short-term flip.
