★ Flip Knife | Lore (Factory New)

The ★ Flip Knife | Lore (Factory New) is a Covert ★ knife finish built around custom-painted knotwork across the blade. Factory New covers the 0.00–0.07 band of the float scale, the cleanest grade available, and it's where that knotwork reads sharpest.

Design

Lore is built on intricate, custom-painted knotwork that wraps the blade in a woven, almost tattoo-like pattern rather than any single splash of color. It's a straightforward Valve finish with no flavor text attached.

★ Flip Knife | Lore (Factory New) Float and Wear

This finish spans a full float range from 0.00 to 0.65, so Factory New sits right at the bottom of it — the knotwork lines come through crisp and fully saturated at this grade, with none of the fading a worn copy picks up. Factory New occupies the 0.00–0.07 float band.

Flip Knife | Lore Rarity

Rarity: Covert ★, the rare special ("knife") slot that outranks every ordinary weapon grade found in a case. That scarcity applies before wear grade even comes into play.

Flip Knife | Lore Case and Collection

Lore isn't part of a single weapon collection — it drops from the Gamma Case and the Gamma 2 Case. Case knives as a tier open at roughly 0.26% per case, which is why most Lore copies get bought outright rather than chased through unboxing.

Flip Knife | Lore Patterns

The knotwork design is fixed — every copy carries the exact same artwork regardless of its paint seed, so there's no pattern index or blue-gem-style seed worth hunting here. Wear and float are the only things that separate one Lore from another.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak™ version of this knife exists, adding a kill counter that stays with the item through every trade. There's no Souvenir edition at all — knives simply never show up in Major-tournament souvenir packages, regardless of case or collection.

Flip Knife | Lore Price

Factory New commands the top of the Lore price ladder, ahead of every lower wear, and lands in the mid-tier range among this knife's finishes as a whole — a solidly premium pickup rather than an entry-level one. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

What case is the Flip Knife Lore in?

It comes from the Gamma Case and the Gamma 2 Case rather than a single dedicated source. Since case knives as a group open at only about 0.26% per case, buying one directly on the market is usually the faster route than chasing an unbox.

Does the Flip Knife Lore have a best pattern or seed?

No — the knotwork design is fixed on every copy, so the paint seed doesn't change how the blade looks and there's no "best pattern" to search for. Float and wear grade are the only real differences between individual Lore knives.

What are the best gloves for the Flip Knife | Lore?

Lore's knotwork sits on a warm, earthy base, so tan, brown, or leather-look gloves blend right in, while a dark charcoal pair keeps things understated without clashing. For the best Flip Knife Lore glove combo, lean into those warm neutral tones rather than pairing it with anything neon.
