★ Butterfly Knife | Damascus Steel (Factory New)

The ★ Butterfly Knife | Damascus Steel (Factory New) is a Covert ★ knife finish that works a banded damascus steel pattern into parts of the blade. Factory New is the sharpest-looking grade on offer, and it's here that the metalwork reads at its sharpest.

Design

Damascus Steel keeps things simple and metal-forward — sections of the blade are finished in that mottled, banded damascus steel look, set against the rest of the plain steel surface. It's a fixed design, so the artwork itself never changes from copy to copy, only the wear grade does.

★ Butterfly Knife | Damascus Steel (Factory New) Float and Wear

Float runs from 0.00 to 0.50 across this finish, and Factory New sits right at the bottom of that range. At this grade the blade shows essentially no scuffing, so the damascus banding reads at its most defined. In float terms, this grade runs 0.00–0.07.

Butterfly Knife | Damascus Steel Rarity

Rarity: Covert ★ — this sits above every ordinary weapon grade in a case, the gold-tier rare special ("knife") slot rather than a standard Covert skin. Landing one at all is the hard part, independent of which wear it comes in.

Butterfly Knife | Damascus Steel Case and Collection

This finish isn't part of a single collection — it turns up in both the Spectrum Case and the Spectrum 2 Case. Across the board, the rare-special ("knife") tier lands at roughly 0.26% per case opening, which is why most buyers pick one up on the market instead of chasing an unbox.

Butterfly Knife | Damascus Steel Patterns

There's no paint seed or pattern index to chase on this finish — the damascus banding is fixed, so every copy carries the same artwork regardless of which one you buy. Wear and float are the only things that separate one Damascus Steel from another, so there's no "best pattern" to hunt here.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak™ version of this knife exists and tracks confirmed kills permanently, carrying that count through any trade or sale. There's no Souvenir version at all — knives are never included in Major-tournament souvenir packages, regardless of case or finish.

Butterfly Knife | Damascus Steel Price

Factory New sits toward the top of this finish's own price ladder and lands in the mid-tier among this knife's finishes overall — a solidly premium item, as any Butterfly Knife finish is. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

What case is the Butterfly Knife Damascus Steel in?

It isn't tied to a single case — you can pull it from either the Spectrum Case or the Spectrum 2 Case. That spread is part of why most buyers grab theirs on the market instead of hunting one specific box.

Is there a best pattern or seed to look for on Damascus Steel?

No — the damascus banding is a fixed design, so every copy looks the same regardless of seed. Float and wear grade are the only things that actually change how a given Damascus Steel looks, so shop by exterior rather than chasing a pattern.

What are the best gloves for the Butterfly Knife | Damascus Steel?

Since the blade leans on a cool, metallic gray-and-steel look, gloves in charcoal, slate, or gunmetal tones keep the loadout consistent without fighting the finish. A muted olive or black pair also works if you want something less matchy. For the best Butterfly Knife Damascus Steel glove combo, stick to neutral, low-saturation colors that let the banding stand out.
