Stiletto Knife | Scorched

The ★ Stiletto Knife | Scorched is a CS2 knife skin with a subdued, spray-painted finish. Charcoal gray surfaces, lighter patches and a silver cutting edge give the slender blade a mottled appearance. Its restrained palette suits players who prefer dark, neutral-colored loadouts over detailed artwork. All exterior conditions are available, alongside standard and StatTrak™ versions, but there is no Souvenir edition.

Description

The ★ Stiletto Knife | Scorched brings an uneven gray spray-painted finish to the Italian-style stiletto switchblade in CS2. Its spring-loaded blade deploys through a release catch, giving the weapon a mechanical character alongside its narrow profile. The Scorched treatment emphasizes irregular patches rather than crisp graphic lines or illustrated subjects. Dark surfaces contrast with the bright cutting edge, leaving the blade's shape easy to distinguish. The mottled handle continues the restrained palette without introducing a separate decorative theme. This look suits buyers seeking a knife that complements black, gray and metallic loadout colors. Standard and StatTrak versions provide different ownership options, while exterior and float value help distinguish individual copies. Before choosing a listing, buyers can compare those details with its images instead of judging the item by its finish name alone.

History and Origin

The knife debuted in CS:GO on August 1, 2018, alongside the Horizon Case. Its release formed part of the update titled "Horizon Case Skins". Valve created the finish, rather than a community designer. The Danger Zone Case is another source from which this knife can be obtained. Its flavor text connects the Phoenix with renewal rather than destruction, attributing that idea to Valeria Jenner, Revolutionary. Valve retired the rare drop pool on December 17, 2025, ending new drops for both source cases. As of October 9, 2026, neither the Horizon Case nor the Danger Zone Case receives new case drops. Existing cases remain available to buy and open, while finished knives can be acquired directly through marketplaces or player trades.

Finish Style

Scorched uses the Spray-Paint finish style, with a patchy treatment suggesting scattered sunlight across the surface. Most of the narrow blade appears charcoal gray, interrupted by irregular lighter gray areas. A bright silver cutting edge provides a clear contrast against the darker blade face. The handle combines black, gray and pale silver in a similarly mottled arrangement. Reflective silver-gray highlights appear on the guard and the flared end of the handle. A dark circular release button stands out among the painted handle surfaces. Smaller round fasteners remain visible, adding mechanical detail without becoming decorative artwork. Together, these elements create a subdued, uneven finish whose character comes from tonal variation rather than sharp outlines or elaborate illustrations.

Float Value

The ★ Stiletto Knife | Scorched has a float range of 0.06 to 0.80. It is available in Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred, covering the full set of exterior labels. Standard and StatTrak versions are supported, but no Souvenir version exists; version availability is separate from the cosmetic condition recorded by exterior and float.

Rarity and Popularity

The knife has a Covert rarity grade, separate from its exterior condition or StatTrak status. Its stated chance of appearing from the Horizon Case is 0.0049%, and that figure should not be applied to the Danger Zone Case. Dima is a documented professional owner, although that connection does not establish broad market demand.

Why it’s Popular:

• Subdued gray palette suits neutral-colored loadouts

• Silver cutting edge contrasts with the charcoal blade

• Mottled spray paint avoids elaborate artwork

• Standard and StatTrak versions offer different ownership options

Price Range

The live price range for ★ Stiletto Knife | Scorched is $123.00 to $899.99. These bounds cover the whole skin, not a particular exterior or version. Listings should be compared by exterior and exact float, since an exterior label alone does not describe every copy's condition. Standard and StatTrak versions should also be checked separately rather than treated as interchangeable purchases. When comparing the CS2 skin price across listings, match those characteristics and inspect the pictured knife before deciding which offer 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 a Weapon Case

Open a Horizon Case or Danger Zone Case for a chance to obtain this knife. Neither case receives new drops, but existing cases can still be bought and opened. The stated Horizon Case chance is 0.0049%, so this route does not secure the Scorched finish.

3. Buy on the Steam Community Market

Buy an available listing on the Steam Community Market to obtain the knife directly rather than through a case opening. Confirm the exterior and version, then inspect the float and item details before purchasing.

4. Trade with Other Players

A player-to-player trade offers another route to acquiring this knife in exchange for other items. Confirm that the offered knife has the Scorched finish, then check its exterior, float and StatTrak status before accepting.

Trading and Investment Considerations

Retired source cases receive no new drops, although remaining cases can still produce additional knives through openings. Professional ownership is documented, but broad demand, listing depth and turnover remain uncertain. Buyers looking to buy, sell or trade should compare matching exteriors and versions rather than assume every copy has the same resale prospects.

Reasons it Holds Value

• Retired source cases receive no new drops

• Documented professional ownership by Dima

• Standard and StatTrak options broaden variant choice

• Subdued finish suits neutral-colored loadouts

The investment rating is medium, supported by retired source cases and documented professional ownership rather than proven price growth. Remaining cases can still introduce additional copies, while uncertain buyer demand is the main risk to resale performance.
