★ Paracord Knife | Blue Steel (Field-Tested)

The ★ Paracord Knife | Blue Steel (Field-Tested) is the middle wear grade of this Covert ★ finish, where the cold-blued surface starts showing genuine handling. It sits roughly at the halfway point of the float scale.

Design

The gray base and blue undertone come from cold bluing rather than a painted graphic, and that treatment stays consistent at every grade. It ships with the flavor line "This is the malbec of weapon design," which suits its low-key, understated finish.

★ Paracord Knife | Blue Steel (Field-Tested) Float and Wear

Field-Tested lands roughly in the middle of Blue Steel's full 0.00–1.00 float range, so surface wear is now clearly visible over the blued coating rather than staying hidden. It's a noticeable step down from the near-smooth look of the top two grades without reaching the roughest end. In float terms, this grade runs 0.15–0.38.

Paracord Knife | Blue Steel Rarity

As a Covert ★ item, this remains the rare special ("knife") tier, a step above every ordinary weapon rarity a case can yield. That ranking applies to the finish overall, regardless of the wear grade attached to any single copy.

Paracord Knife | Blue Steel Case and Collection

Both the Shattered Web Case and the Fracture Case can produce this finish. The rare-special slot pulls at roughly 0.26% per case no matter which of the two you open, so buying outright tends to be the more practical path.

Paracord Knife Blue Steel Patterns

The fixed cold-blued design means there's no paint-seed pattern to compare between copies — every Blue Steel carries the identical gray-blue treatment. Wear and float remain the only real differences at this grade.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak™ edition of this knife exists, tracking confirmed kills permanently and carrying that tally through every trade or resale. No Souvenir version was ever produced, because knives don't appear in Major-tournament souvenir packages regardless of the case they come from.

FAQ

How worn does the Paracord Knife Blue Steel look at Field-Tested?

It sits roughly in the middle of the finish's 0.00–1.00 float range, so surface wear is clearly visible over the blued coating rather than staying hidden. It's noticeably more handled than Minimal Wear but not as rough as the bottom grades.

Is Field-Tested a reasonable way to buy the Paracord Knife Blue Steel?

It's a solid middle ground — meaningfully cheaper than the near-mint grades while still showing the cold-blued gray-blue look clearly. If price matters more than a pristine surface, Field-Tested is a fair pick.

Does the Paracord Knife Blue Steel have a best pattern to look for?

No — the design is fixed with no seed variation, so there's no pattern to chase at any grade, Field-Tested included. Only wear and float change from copy to copy.
