Huntsman Knife | Slaughter

★ Huntsman Knife | Slaughter is a CS2 knife skin with a red metallic finish and irregular zebra-style bands. The bright blade contrasts with a nearly black handle, suiting red-and-black loadouts. Factory New, Minimal Wear and Field-Tested copies are available, including StatTrak™ versions.

Description

The ★ Huntsman Knife | Slaughter applies an Anodized Multicolored finish to the Huntsman Knife's angular tactical blade. Its Tanto point gives the weapon a sharply defined profile, while the notched spine adds another visible detail. Tomato-red color and pale striped patches make the blade the visual focus rather than the handle. The dark grip offers a restrained contrast to the busy metal surfaces. This combination suits players building a red-themed loadout or wanting a patterned knife with a mostly plain grip. Standard and StatTrak copies provide different ownership options. Buyers can choose among the supported exteriors, then inspect the exact float value and item image. For an existing copy, marketplaces and player trades offer alternatives to opening its original case.

History and Origin

Valve introduced this knife finish on May 1, 2014. It arrived with the Huntsman Weapon Case in the "Huntsman Case Skins" update. The design was created by Valve, rather than a community designer. The Huntsman Weapon Case remains the case used to obtain it through opening. Valve retired the rare drop pool on December 17, 2025. As of October 9, 2026, the Huntsman Weapon Case no longer drops. Previously issued cases can still be bought and opened, so retirement did not remove the case-opening route. Already obtained knives can also be purchased on the Steam Community Market or acquired through player trades.

Finish Style

Anodized Multicolored styling gives the blade a tomato-red metallic character. Broad pale pink and near-white patches form irregular zebra-like stripes across the blade face. Aluminum and chrome paints sit beneath the red topcoat, contributing different levels of reflectivity. That contrast gives the patterned surface variation beyond its red color. Darker red bands follow the notched spine along the blade's upper edge. Thin red lines trace the long recessed groove on the blade face. The finish extends onto the angular guard, which has a small circular opening near its lower tip. The nearly black handle combines fine diagonal texturing, deep finger grooves, red fasteners and red edging without repeating the blade's busy pattern.

Float Value

The float value of ★ Huntsman Knife | Slaughter ranges from 0.01 to 0.26. Its available exteriors are Factory New, Minimal Wear and Field-Tested, with no Well-Worn or Battle-Scarred copies. StatTrak versions are available; version choice is separate from the item's exterior condition.

Rarity and Popularity

The knife carries the Covert rarity grade. Its individual opening chance from the Huntsman Weapon Case is 0.02%. Retired case drops restrict case replenishment, but existing cases can still yield this finish and existing knives remain available through purchases or trades.

Why it’s Popular:

• Tomato-red blade suits red-and-black loadouts

• Pale zebra-style patches create strong visual contrast

• Dark textured handle balances the busy blade

• StatTrak options appeal to players who want a counter

Price Range

The live ★ Huntsman Knife | Slaughter price range is $153.15 to $666.00. These bounds cover the whole skin, rather than a fixed exterior or version. For a useful CS2 skin price comparison, distinguish standard copies from StatTrak listings and match the exterior. Check the exact float value as well, since the exterior label does not identify a copy's precise float. Inspect the blade and handle images alongside the asking price before deciding which listing best fits the intended loadout.

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 the Huntsman Weapon Case

Open the Huntsman Weapon Case for a chance to obtain this knife, with an individual drop chance of 0.02%. The case no longer drops, but existing cases can still be purchased on the market and opened.

3. Buy on the Steam Community Market

Buy an existing copy on the Steam Community Market instead of relying on a case opening. Check the exterior, exact float value and whether the listing is standard or StatTrak before choosing.

4. Trade with Other Players

Player-to-player trades provide another route to an existing ★ Huntsman Knife | Slaughter. Confirm that the offered item matches the intended exterior, float and StatTrak status before agreeing to the exchange.

Trading and Investment Considerations

No new Huntsman Weapon Cases enter through drops, although existing cases can still produce this knife when opened. Traders should compare standard and StatTrak copies across the available exteriors before choosing what to buy, sell or trade. Without an established demand trend or price history, retired case status alone cannot demonstrate resale speed or future appreciation.

Reasons it Holds Value

• Retired case supply prevents replenishment through drops

• Low opening chance limits successful case pulls

• Distinctive red metallic finish offers visual appeal

• Standard and StatTrak versions provide collecting options

The investment rating is medium, supported by retired case supply and the low chance of opening this finish. The main risk is uncertain resale demand, since restricted case replenishment alone does not establish future price growth.
