★ Gut Knife | Damascus Steel (Battle-Scarred)

The ★ Gut Knife | Damascus Steel (Battle-Scarred) is the most heavily worn grade this finish
comes in, though the folded steel treatment on the blade is unmistakable at any wear level.
Because the finish itself is capped below a full 1.00 float, even this roughest grade never
reaches the extreme wear a full-range skin can show.

Design

This finish works forged, layered steel patterning into parts of the blade instead of a
painted graphic — a texture that stays the same across every copy, however worn. Wear grade is
what changes here, not the underlying design.

★ Gut Knife | Damascus Steel (Battle-Scarred) Float and Wear

Damascus Steel is float-capped at 0.50, so Battle-Scarred only reaches the 0.45–0.50 band
instead of climbing to a full 1.00 like an uncapped finish would. That cap means even the most
worn copy of this knife stops short of the heaviest damage other skins can show.

Gut Knife | Damascus Steel Rarity

Wear aside, this finish is still Covert ★ — the rare special ("knife") tier, not an ordinary
weapon-grade Covert. That gold-tier rarity is fixed at the item level and doesn't shift with how
worn a given copy looks.

Gut Knife | Damascus Steel Case and Collection

This finish spreads across the Chroma Case, Chroma 2 Case, and Chroma 3 Case rather than
sitting in one collection. Pulling the rare-special ("knife") tier from any of them runs around
0.26% per opening, so most Battle-Scarred copies are bought outright.

Gut Knife | Damascus Steel Patterns

No paint seed changes how this finish looks — it's fixed, so there's no pattern or blue-gem
seed to chase here regardless of wear grade. Battle-Scarred copies show the identical folded
steel treatment as any other grade, just at a higher float.

StatTrak & Souvenir

This knife is also available as a StatTrak™ version that permanently records confirmed kills
and keeps that count through trades. It has no Souvenir counterpart, as knives never appear in
Major-tournament souvenir packages.

FAQ

How worn is Battle-Scarred on Damascus Steel compared to other skins?

Milder than you'd expect. This finish is capped at a 0.50 float, so Battle-Scarred only spans
0.45–0.50 instead of climbing toward a full 1.00 the way an uncapped skin's roughest grade would.
The wear is visible but not as extreme as on a full-range finish.

What's the cheapest way to get this finish?

Battle-Scarred, hands down — it sits at the bottom of Damascus Steel's own price ladder, and
this finish is already the most accessible entry point into the knife as a whole. It's the
lowest-cost route to owning the look.

Is the pattern any different on a worn copy like this?

No — the design is fixed regardless of wear, so a Battle-Scarred copy shows the exact same
folded steel treatment as a Factory New one. Wear grade and float value are the only things that
separate this copy from a cleaner one.
