Stiletto Knife | Ultraviolet

The ★ Stiletto Knife | Ultraviolet is a CS2 knife skin with a narrow charcoal blade and solid purple handle panels. A bright silver cutting edge contrasts with the dark metal fittings. Its minimal design suits players building a restrained black-and-purple loadout. All exterior grades are available, with standard and StatTrak™ versions but no Souvenir edition.

Description

The ★ Stiletto Knife | Ultraviolet brings a black-and-purple Solid Color finish to the Stiletto Knife in CS2. Its Italian-style switchblade design features a spring-loaded blade operated through a release catch. The long, narrow blade gives the weapon a slim profile rather than a broad surface for decoration. Purple handle panels provide the main color accent, while the blade and hardware remain dark. Circular pins and the round release button add mechanical detail without introducing artwork. This finish suits players who prefer clear color blocking over illustrated or patterned knife designs. Standard copies offer the appearance alone, while StatTrak versions provide an alternative for players who want a kill counter. Buyers can compare exterior, exact float value and version to find a listing that fits their preferred condition and budget.

History and Origin

Valve introduced the ★ Stiletto Knife | Ultraviolet on March 13, 2019, alongside the Prisma Case. Its release formed part of the Prisma Case Skins update. Valve created the finish, rather than a community designer. The underlying weapon draws on an Italian-style switchblade, with a spring-loaded mechanism central to its design. The Prisma 2 Case also contains this finish, providing another case-opening route today. Valve retired the rare drop pool on December 17, 2025, and both source cases no longer drop. Existing Prisma Case and Prisma 2 Case containers can still be bought on the market and opened. Players seeking the finished knife instead can use the Steam Community Market, Eneba Skins or player-to-player trades rather than opening a case.

Finish Style

Ultraviolet uses the Solid Color finish style, with separate weapon parts painted in distinct, uniform colors. The blade is dark charcoal gray, keeping most of its long surface visually restrained. A bright silver line follows the cutting edge and defines the blade against that darker face. Solid purple side panels cover the handle, with subtle highlights visible along their edges. The guard, blade hinge and flared end cap range from dark gray to black. Dark circular pins and a larger round release button punctuate the purple grip. There is no visible artwork or patterned decoration competing with the knife's mechanical features. Together, the narrow silhouette and controlled palette give the finish an elegant but severe visual character.

Float Value

The ★ Stiletto Knife | Ultraviolet has a float range of 0.06 to 0.80. Its available exteriors are Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred. Standard and StatTrak versions are available; version availability is separate from the individual knife's cosmetic condition.

Rarity and Popularity

The ★ Stiletto Knife | Ultraviolet has the Covert rarity grade. Its chance of being obtained from the Prisma Case is 0.0091%, making that specific case route a low-probability acquisition. Professional players INS and yel own the skin, providing documented ownership without establishing broader demand.

Why it’s Popular:

• Purple handle panels contrast clearly with the charcoal blade

• Minimal decoration suits restrained black-and-purple loadouts

• Slim switchblade profile keeps the design visually focused

• Standard and StatTrak options accommodate different player preferences

Price Range

The live price range is $141.36 to $1,347.45. These bounds cover the whole skin, rather than fixed exterior or version pairings. Exterior and StatTrak status can affect asking prices, so listings should be compared within the desired variant. Check the exact float value and item images instead of relying only on the exterior label. When deciding to buy, sell or trade, compare those details alongside the current 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 Prisma Case or Prisma 2 Case for a chance at this knife finish. Neither case drops anymore, but existing containers remain available to buy on the market and open. The Prisma Case chance is 0.0091%; that figure should not be applied to the Prisma 2 Case.

3. Buy on the Steam Community Market

The Steam Community Market provides a direct route to buying the finished knife without relying on a case outcome. Compare the listing's exterior and whether it is a standard or StatTrak version before choosing a copy.

4. Trade with Other Players

The knife can also be obtained through a player-to-player trade with someone who owns it. Check the exact float, exterior and StatTrak status of the offered item before accepting, particularly when exchanging several skins for a knife.

Trading and Investment Considerations

Retired source cases restrict replenishment of unopened containers, but remaining cases can still add knives to circulation. Ownership by INS and yel offers a point of interest, not proof of strong demand or quick resale. For trades, compare exterior, exact float and StatTrak status rather than treating all Ultraviolet copies as interchangeable.

Reasons it Holds Value

• Retired source cases restrict replenishment

• Very low stated Prisma Case acquisition odds

• Documented ownership by INS and yel

• Standard and StatTrak collecting options

The editorial investment rating is medium-to-good, supported by retired source cases, low Prisma Case acquisition odds and documented professional ownership. The main risk is uncertain sustained demand: existing cases can still produce additional knives, and a higher resale price should not be assumed.
