★ Gut Knife | Slaughter (Field-Tested)

The ★ Gut Knife | Slaughter (Field-Tested) still shows the full zebra-stripe base under its tomato red candy coat, just at a higher point on this finish's float scale. Field-Tested is the most worn grade this Slaughter reaches, and it's also the most budget-friendly way onto this knife.

Design

The candy coat's tomato red sits over an aluminum-and-chrome zebra-stripe base, with the balance between the two varying from copy to copy. It carries the same flavor text as every other Slaughter: "Valeria doesn't pay Javier to ask questions... she pays him to pry out answers."

★ Gut Knife | Slaughter (Field-Tested) Float and Wear

The Slaughter's float is capped at 0.26, well short of a full-range skin's 1.00 ceiling — so even the most worn wear available here stays noticeably milder than a Battle-Scarred copy of a full-range finish. Field-Tested covers roughly 0.15–0.26 on that scale, the high-float end of what this finish offers, showing light general wear across the surface rather than heavy damage.

Gut Knife | Slaughter Rarity

Slaughter's Covert ★ rarity marks it as the rare special ("knife") tier, the gold-standard drop that sits above every standard weapon grade regardless of exterior. Wear grade never changes that underlying rarity.

Gut Knife | Slaughter Case and Collection

No single collection houses this finish — it's one of the original knife finishes spread across a long list of cases, from the CS:GO Weapon Case to the Revolver Case and beyond. That rare-special tier lands at about 0.26% per case opening overall, so buying on the market remains the practical route for most players.

Gut Knife | Slaughter Patterns

Where the red candy spatter falls is set by the paint seed and differs from copy to copy, wear grade aside. The most prized layout is a clean, centered heart or a tightly gathered cluster, which sells at a premium over a looser, more scattered spread. Because that layout locks in permanently, a Field-Tested copy with a strong pattern is worth seeking out over a cleaner-wear copy with a weak one. There's no blue-gem angle to chase, just the shape of that spatter.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak™ Gut Knife Slaughter exists, tracking confirmed kills permanently across trades and sales. Souvenir versions were never produced — knives are excluded from Major-tournament souvenir packages entirely, no matter the case.

Gut Knife | Slaughter Price

Field-Tested sits at the bottom of the Slaughter's own price ladder, making it the most accessible wear of this finish while the finish overall stays in the mid-tier band among this knife's other options. A strong pattern can still lift an individual Field-Tested copy above a plainer one. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is Field-Tested a big step down from Factory New on the Slaughter?

It's a visible step, though a mild one since the finish's float never climbs past 0.26 in the first place. The candy coat shows some general softening at Field-Tested but nothing close to the heavy scuffing a full-range weapon skin shows at its worst wear.

What is the best Gut Knife Slaughter pattern to look for?

A clean, centered heart shape or a tightly gathered spatter cluster is the layout collectors chase, and it carries a real premium over a loose, scattered pattern. Since that layout is locked in by the paint seed for good, it's worth checking on a Field-Tested listing just as closely as on a Factory New one.

Is Field-Tested the cheapest way to own a Gut Knife Slaughter?

Yes, Field-Tested sits at the bottom of this finish's price ladder, making it the most accessible of the three available wear grades. It's a solid entry point for anyone who wants the Slaughter's look without paying for the lowest possible float.
