Skeleton Knife | Scorched

★ Skeleton Knife | Scorched is a CS2 knife skin with an irregular spray-painted finish across its blade and handle. Pale beige, silver-gray, charcoal, and black patches contrast with bright metallic highlights along the cutting edge. Its muted palette and skeletonized shape suit players who prefer restrained colors with a detailed silhouette. All exterior tiers are available, with regular and StatTrak™ versions.

Description

★ Skeleton Knife | Scorched brings a mottled, sun-dappled finish to a skeletonized knife in CS2. The design combines a patchwork painted surface with exposed metallic highlights, giving the blade contrast without bright colors or illustrated artwork. Its taped handle and large circular opening are part of the weapon's construction, separate from the Scorched finish itself. Small holes near the blade base add detail to the angular profile and connect visually with the larger opening. The subdued palette suits loadouts built around neutral colors, while the irregular pattern keeps the surface from looking uniform. Regular and StatTrak versions are available. REZ owns the skin. Before buying, compare each listing's exterior, exact float value, and version rather than choosing from the finish name alone.

History and Origin

The knife was released on November 18, 2019, during the Operation Shattered Web update, establishing its original introduction before its current CS2 availability. Its debut case was the Shattered Web Case, which remains an acquisition route through existing containers rather than newly dropped supply. Valve created the skin, so its origin is an internal design rather than a named community designer's contribution. The accompanying flavor text connects the Phoenix with rebirth and attributes that idea to Valeria Jenner, Revolutionary. The Fracture Case also contains this finish, giving buyers another case route without changing the knife's original release history. As of October 9, 2026, neither case receives new drops following Valve's retirement of the rare drop pool on December 17, 2025. Existing Shattered Web and Fracture cases can still be bought on the market and opened despite that retired drop status. Finished copies can also be acquired through marketplace purchases or player trades, separate from obtaining and opening a case.

Finish Style

Scorched uses a Spray-Paint finish to create an uneven distribution of light and dark patches rather than a single uniform color. Pale beige, silver-gray, charcoal, and black cover the blade and handle in a sun-dappled arrangement. A broad dark section runs along the upper blade, giving that area a strong visual weight within the mottled surface. Lighter patches occupy much of the tip and lower face, breaking up the dark coverage without forming an illustrated motif. The cutting edge and long angular bevel carry bright metallic highlights that distinguish those surfaces from the surrounding paint. Four small holes near the blade base lead toward the large circular opening, keeping the knife's cutout construction clearly visible. Diagonal tape bands cross the handle and continue toward the small hole positioned at its rounded end. With no visible lettering or illustrated artwork, the moderately busy design relies on color placement, metal highlights, and the knife's shape.

Float Value

The float value range is exactly 0.06 to 0.80, allowing buyers to compare condition within the skin's supported range. Available exteriors are Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, and Battle-Scarred, so no exterior tier is missing. Regular and StatTrak versions are available; version availability is separate from a copy's cosmetic condition.

Rarity and Popularity

★ Skeleton Knife | Scorched has the Covert rarity grade, which is separate from its exterior condition and float value. Its stated chance from the Shattered Web Case is 0.0049%, an acquisition probability that should not be applied to the Fracture Case. REZ owns the skin, while buyers can also obtain existing copies through marketplaces and player trades.

Why it’s Popular:

• Muted beige, gray, and black colors suit restrained loadouts

• Metallic bevel highlights contrast with the irregular painted surface

• Skeletonized construction and a circular opening create a distinct profile

• All exterior tiers are available, alongside StatTrak options

Price Range

The live price range for ★ Skeleton Knife | Scorched is $110.53 to $785.48, covering the skin as a whole. Buyers should compare Factory New through Battle-Scarred listings rather than treating every copy as interchangeable. The exact float value adds condition detail beyond the exterior label, so matching that label alone does not complete a comparison. Regular and StatTrak versions should be checked separately, without assuming a fixed price relationship between them. For a useful CS2 skin price comparison, match the exterior and version first, then inspect the float and the individual asking price.

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 Shattered Web Case or Fracture Case for a chance to obtain this knife, rather than a guaranteed result. The chance of obtaining this knife from the Shattered Web Case is 0.0049%. Neither case receives new drops, but existing cases remain available to buy and open.

3. Buy on the Steam Community Market

Buy an existing copy on the Steam Community Market instead of relying on a case opening to produce the desired knife. Compare the listing's exterior, float value, and regular or StatTrak version before choosing. This route lets a buyer select a listed copy, while the purchase price depends on that individual listing.

4. Trade with Other Players

Trade with another player to acquire an existing ★ Skeleton Knife | Scorched rather than opening a case. Check that the offered item has the intended exterior, exact float, and regular or StatTrak version. Compare those details with current listings before agreeing on the items involved in the exchange.

Trading and Investment Considerations

Retired case sources limit new case supply, but existing Shattered Web and Fracture cases can still produce additional copies when opened. REZ's ownership provides specific ownership evidence, not proof of broad demand or a sustained price trend. Anyone looking to buy, sell, or trade should compare matching exteriors and versions, then inspect float values before judging individual offers.

Reasons it Holds Value

• Retired case sources no longer receive new drops

• Documented ownership by REZ

• Distinctive skeletonized shape with a muted spray-painted finish

• Regular and StatTrak options accommodate different collecting preferences

The investment rating is medium, balancing retired case sources and documented professional ownership against uncertainty about broader demand and future price direction. The finish offers several exterior and version choices, but that selection alone does not establish investment performance. Existing cases can still add knives to circulation, so discontinued case drops do not make the skin's supply permanently fixed.
