★ Navaja Knife | Stained (Factory New)

The ★ Navaja Knife | Stained (Factory New) is a Covert ★ rare-special knife finish built around a forced patina of lemon and mustard tones dripped across the blade. Factory New is the cleanest of this finish's five wear grades, showing that patina texture at its crispest before any surface wear sets in.

Design

Stained gets its look from a forced patina — lemon and mustard tones dripped onto the metal rather than an airbrushed or painted design. Exactly how that patina spreads varies from copy to copy, which is part of what collectors look at when picking one. It carries the flavor line "If you think it's messy now, wait until you see it under a blacklight."

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

This finish runs the full 0.00–1.00 float range, and Factory New covers the bottom 0.00–0.07 band — the cleanest grade available, where the patina's texture and coloring show through most clearly before wear starts muddying the surface.

Navaja Knife | Stained Rarity

Rarity: Covert ★ — the rare-special ("knife") slot that ranks above every ordinary weapon grade pulled from the same case. That status comes from the item type itself, independent of wear.

Navaja Knife | Stained Case and Collection

This finish isn't housed in a single collection; it drops from the Horizon Case and the Danger Zone Case. The rare-special tier as a whole lands around 0.26% per case opening, so most buyers pick up a finished copy on the market instead of chasing that pull.

Navaja Knife | Stained Patterns

There's no rare "blue gem" seed to chase on Stained, but the patina texture genuinely does vary from copy to copy — some seeds spread the lemon-and-mustard staining more evenly than others, and collectors do pay attention to that. It isn't a case of every copy looking identical; the seed still matters for how clean or blotchy the patina reads.

StatTrak & Souvenir

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

Navaja Knife | Stained Price

Factory New sits at the top of this finish's own price ladder, though Stained overall counts as the most accessible entry point into this knife — still a premium item, just the lighter buy-in among its finishes. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

What case is the Navaja Knife Stained in?

It comes from the Horizon Case and the Danger Zone Case rather than any single collection. The rare-special ("knife") tier pulls at roughly 0.26% per case opening, which is why most players buy a finished copy on the market instead of farming cases.

Does the pattern matter on the Navaja Knife Stained? Which seed is best?

The patina texture does vary by seed — some copies spread the lemon-and-mustard staining more evenly than others — though there's no rare "blue gem" tier like on a Case Hardened. Collectors do look for a cleaner-spreading patina, so seed isn't irrelevant here even without a single grail number.

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

The patina's lemon-and-mustard tones pair well with warm yellow, tan, or olive gloves that pick up on those same shades. A neutral dark pair also works if you'd rather keep the loadout understated. For the best Navaja Knife Stained glove combo, lean into those warm earthy tones instead of clashing with something cool-toned.
