Gut Knife | Tiger Tooth

★ Gut Knife | Tiger Tooth is a CS2 knife skin with an orange-gold blade covered in dark tiger stripes. Its hooked blade, reflective highlights and reddish-brown handle give it a distinct silhouette and warm color palette. The finish suits players who prefer a patterned blade with a comparatively plain grip. Factory New and Minimal Wear copies are available, including StatTrak™ versions.

Description

★ Gut Knife | Tiger Tooth brings a bright animal-stripe finish to the Gut Knife in CS2. The model's defining feature is the hook along the blade's spine, which remains visible within the striped design. Orange-gold metal and dark brown markings create the main contrast across the broad blade face. A reddish-brown handle keeps the decorative pattern concentrated on the metal rather than spreading it across the entire knife. This combination suits warm-colored loadouts and players who want visible patterning without an equally busy grip. Standard and StatTrak versions provide a choice between the finish alone and a version with a kill counter. Its exterior selection is limited to Factory New and Minimal Wear, keeping the available condition choices straightforward. Buyers can compare the individual blade appearance, float value, exterior and version before choosing a listing.

History and Origin

The Gut Knife | Tiger Tooth debuted in CS:GO on January 8, 2015, alongside the Chroma Case. Its release was part of the Chroma Case Skins update. Valve created the finish, rather than a community designer. The underlying knife design features a gut hook originally associated with field dressing game. The Chroma 2 Case and Chroma 3 Case also offer routes to obtaining this finish. Valve retired the rare drop pool on December 17, 2025, ending new drops of these source cases. As of October 9, 2026, all of these cases remain obtainable from existing market stock and can still be opened. Current buyers can also acquire the finished knife through marketplace listings or player trades, separately from its original case release.

Finish Style

Tiger Tooth uses the Anodized Multicolored finish style, combining an orange anodized surface with hand-etched tiger striping. The blade appears bright orange-gold, with dark brown markings providing contrast against the reflective metal. Individual stripes are narrow, irregular and tapered rather than evenly spaced bands. They extend across the broad blade and onto the hooked section near the tip. A silver-white line follows the curved cutting edge, visually separating it from the patterned blade face. Golden highlights emphasize the reflective character of the metal without changing the underlying orange-and-brown palette. The reddish-brown handle shows grain-like streaks and remains comparatively plain beside the blade. Three round brass-colored fasteners punctuate the grip and complement its warm tones. Orange-gold metal borders the handle and continues into the butt, where a circular hole completes the outline.

Float Value

The Gut Knife | Tiger Tooth has a float range of 0.00 to 0.08, with Factory New and Minimal Wear as its only available exteriors. Listing comparisons should stay within these available exteriors and account for each copy's individual float value. Standard and StatTrak versions are available; these version choices are separate from cosmetic condition.

Rarity and Popularity

★ Gut Knife | Tiger Tooth is a Covert knife skin. Its stated chance from the Chroma Case is 0.0085%, which should not be treated as a confirmed rate for the other source cases. Documented owners include professional players FalleN, Hyper and TeSeS, showing professional use without establishing broader market demand.

Why it’s Popular:

• Bright orange-gold blade with contrasting dark tiger stripes

• Distinctive hooked silhouette with a comparatively plain handle

• Reflective metal complements warm-colored loadouts

• Standard and StatTrak versions offer different ownership options

Price Range

The live CS2 skin price range is $81.30 to $268.16. Exterior, float value and the presence of a StatTrak counter are important details to compare between listings. Factory New and Minimal Wear copies are available in both standard and StatTrak versions. The displayed bounds cover the whole skin, rather than assigning a fixed price to any named variant. When deciding where to buy, sell or trade, compare matching versions and inspect the individual knife instead of treating every listing as equivalent.

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 Chroma Case, Chroma 2 Case or Chroma 3 Case. These cases no longer drop, but existing cases can still be bought on the market and opened. The stated chance for this skin from the Chroma Case is 0.0085%, so an opening does not reliably produce the desired knife.

3. Buy on the Steam Community Market

The Gut Knife | Tiger Tooth can be purchased directly through the Steam Community Market instead of pursuing a case result. Check whether the listing is Factory New or Minimal Wear and whether it includes StatTrak. The selected exterior and version should match the intended purchase before the transaction is completed.

4. Trade with Other Players

Players can obtain the knife through a trade with another player who owns a copy. Compare its float, exterior and StatTrak status with the items being offered in exchange. A trade targets an existing knife directly rather than relying on a random case outcome.

Trading and Investment Considerations

With no new source cases dropping, openings consume existing Chroma case supply, although remaining cases can still produce additional knives. That limits future case replenishment without proving that existing Tiger Tooth copies are scarce or quick to sell. Traders should compare like-for-like exteriors and versions, while treating future resale demand and price direction as uncertain.

Reasons it Holds Value

• Retired source cases prevent new case replenishment

• Documented ownership by professional players

• Distinctive orange-gold tiger-stripe finish

• Factory New and StatTrak options support different buyer preferences

The Gut Knife | Tiger Tooth receives a medium-to-good investment rating, supported by retired source cases and documented professional ownership. Its identifiable finish and available versions provide practical reasons for buyers to consider it. The main risk is that constrained case supply alone does not establish sustained resale demand or rising prices.
