★ Navaja Knife | Slaughter (Factory New)

The ★ Navaja Knife | Slaughter (Factory New) is a Covert ★ knife finish that pairs a zebra-stripe metallic base with a tomato red candy coat. Factory New is the cleanest of this finish's three available wears, catching that red spatter before any handling dulls it.

Design

Under the candy coat, this finish starts life as an aluminum-and-chrome zebra-stripe job, then gets flooded in glossy tomato red that lets the metallic striping peek through. It carries the flavor line: "Valeria doesn't pay Javier to ask questions... she pays him to pry out answers."

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

Slaughter's float runs from 0.01 to 0.26 across its three wears, and Factory New sits right at that floor — the lowest-float grade this finish reaches. In numeric terms Factory New spans roughly 0.01–0.07, so the spatter pattern reads sharp and unbroken before any surface wear sets in.

Navaja Knife | Slaughter Rarity

Rarity: Covert ★ — a rare special ("knife") item, the gold-tier slot that outranks every regular weapon grade in a case. That scarcity is baked in well before wear becomes a factor.

Navaja Knife | Slaughter Case and Collection

Rather than tying to a single collection, this finish turns up across a wide range of cases, including the Horizon Case and Danger Zone Case among others. The rare-special tier lands at roughly 0.26% per case opening as a whole, so most buyers pick one up on the market instead of hunting a specific drop.

Navaja Knife | Slaughter Patterns

Because the candy-red spatter falls differently on every copy, the paint seed is what separates an average Slaughter from a great one. The grail arrangement is a clean, centered heart shape — or at least a tight cluster concentrated on the blade — and those seeds carry a real premium over ones where the spatter scatters loosely across the surface. That layout locks in the moment the skin generates and never shifts as the knife wears down the line. There's no fade percentage or phase involved, just the hunt for that centered pattern.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak™ version of this knife exists, tallying confirmed kills permanently and carrying that count through any trade or sale. There's no Souvenir version, though — knives simply never appear in Major-tournament souvenir packages, no matter the case or collection.

Navaja Knife | Slaughter Price

Factory New tops the Slaughter's own price ladder among its three wears and sits in the upper-mid range for this knife overall — one of the pricier picks, though a centered-heart pattern can push an individual copy well past that baseline. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

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

The candy-red base pairs naturally with red or black gloves — think warm red leather tones or a sleek black pair that lets the spatter pop against a darker loadout. Avoid pastel or icy tones that clash with that warm red. For the best Navaja Knife Slaughter glove combo, lean into red-and-black pairings rather than fighting the finish's warm palette.

What case is the Navaja Knife Slaughter in?

It isn't locked to one box — Slaughter turns up across a wide range of cases, with the Horizon Case and Danger Zone Case among the better-known sources. That spread is exactly why most buyers pick theirs up on the market instead of chasing a specific case.

Is Factory New worth it over Minimal Wear on the Slaughter?

Factory New sits at the very floor of this finish's 0.01–0.26 float range, so the red spatter reads at its most vivid with zero surface wear. Minimal Wear is only a step behind visually, but if you want the sharpest possible read on a centered-heart pattern, Factory New is the safer pick.
