★ Huntsman Knife | Slaughter (Factory New)

The ★ Huntsman Knife | Slaughter (Factory New) is a Covert ★ knife finish, a zebra-stripe base of aluminum and chrome paint drowned under a tomato red candy coat. Factory New is the lowest-float, crispest grade this finish comes in, so the red spatter reads at its sharpest here.

Design

Underneath the red is a zebra-stripe pattern laid down in aluminum and chrome paints of different reflectivities, then the whole blade gets a tomato red candy coat over the top. It carries the flavor line "Valeria doesn't pay Javier to ask questions... she pays him to pry out answers."

★ Huntsman Knife | Slaughter (Factory New) Float and Wear

This finish runs a 0.01–0.26 float range, and Factory New sits at the bottom of that band, covering roughly 0.01–0.07. That's the cleanest the candy coat and its splatter ever look, with every fleck of the pattern crisp and easy to trace.

Huntsman Knife | Slaughter Rarity

Rarity: Covert ★ — this is the gold-tier rare special ("knife") slot, not an ordinary Covert weapon skin, and it sits above every regular grade a case can produce.

Huntsman Knife | Slaughter Case and Collection

Slaughter drops from the Huntsman Weapon Case, and pulling the rare-special ("knife") tier out of any case lands at roughly 0.26% on average — a long enough shot that most buyers just pick one up on the market.

Huntsman Knife | Slaughter Patterns

The candy-red spatter over that zebra-stripe base lands differently on every copy, driven entirely by the paint seed. Some copies scatter the red loosely across the blade, while the standout copies pull it into a clean, centered heart shape or a tight cluster — those are what collectors chase, and they carry a real premium over the scattered look. That seed is locked in for the life of the copy, so a Factory New with a strong heart pattern keeps it forever, no matter how it's traded.

StatTrak & Souvenir

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

Huntsman Knife | Slaughter Price

FAQ

What is the best Huntsman Knife Slaughter pattern?

Look for a copy where the red spatter forms a clean, centered heart shape or pulls into a tight cluster rather than scattering loosely across the blade. Those pattern reads are the most sought-after and sell at a premium over average copies. The pattern is fixed by the paint seed and never changes as the knife wears.

What case is the Huntsman Knife Slaughter in?

It drops from the Huntsman Weapon Case. The rare-special ("knife") tier as a whole lands at roughly 0.26% per case opening, which is why most players buy their copy on the market rather than gambling on an unbox.

What are the best gloves for the Huntsman Knife | Slaughter?

Since the blade leans hard into tomato red over a metallic base, red or crimson-toned gloves make an easy match, while black or dark gray gloves let the candy coat stand out on its own. For the best Huntsman Knife Slaughter glove combo, pair it with a red-accented pair rather than something too bright or clashing.
