★ Paracord Knife | Marble Fade (Factory New)

The ★ Paracord Knife | Marble Fade (Factory New) is a Covert-rarity knife finish built from black and silver metallic paints swirled with a marbleizing medium and candy coated in three colors. Factory New is the lower-float of this finish's two grades, letting that swirl pattern read at its most legible.

Design

Black and silver metallic paints, worked through a marbleizing medium and finished with a three-color candy coat, give this blade its swirling look. The line "The blade is made of many colors, but soon it all looks red" comes attached to it. No two paint seeds arrange the swirl the same way, and collectors track specific arrangements the way they'd track a pattern on any marbled finish.

★ Paracord Knife | Marble Fade (Factory New) Float and Wear

Marble Fade is capped between 0.00 and 0.08, so only Factory New and Minimal Wear exist for this finish and it never approaches heavy wear. Factory New takes the 0.00–0.07 band, the lower end of that narrow range, where the marbled swirl shows with full clarity and no surface roughness gets in the way of reading the pattern. This is the finish's floor — there's no lower-float grade beyond it.

Paracord Knife | Marble Fade Rarity

Covert ★ is the rarity classification here, the gold-tier rare special ("knife") status that stands entirely apart from normal weapon rarity. Landing any knife from a case is a rare outcome by design.

Paracord Knife | Marble Fade Case and Collection

This finish comes from the Fever Case, and no confirmed release date is tied to it beyond that. The rare-special odds of pulling a knife from that case sit at roughly 0.26%.

Paracord Knife Marble Fade Patterns

Marble Fade's swirl is fixed by the paint seed, and collectors chase specific arrangements the same way blue-gem hunters chase seeds on other finishes. The outright grail is "Fire & Ice" — red and blue flame shapes meeting cleanly along the edge — which commands a serious premium, with "Max Fire" (red-dominant) and "Max Ice" (blue-dominant) patterns also highly prized below it. That arrangement is locked in for the life of the copy and never shifts with wear, so it's the seed, not the grade, that separates an ordinary Marble Fade from a top-tier one.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak version of this knife exists too, adding a confirmed-kill counter that becomes permanent once it starts tracking. There's no Souvenir version — knives never appear in Major-tournament souvenir packages, whatever case or seed produced them.

Paracord Knife | Marble Fade Price

Factory New sits above Minimal Wear on this finish's two-grade ladder, and Marble Fade overall lands mid-tier among this knife's finishes. A Fire & Ice seed can push any copy well past that typical mid-tier price regardless of grade. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

What is the best Paracord Knife Marble Fade pattern?

"Fire & Ice" is the grail — red and blue flame shapes meeting cleanly on the blade's edge — and it commands a large premium. "Max Fire" and "Max Ice," which lean heavily red or heavily blue, are also highly prized. The arrangement is set by the paint seed and never changes as the knife wears, so it's fixed for the copy's whole life.

What are the best gloves for the Paracord Knife | Marble Fade?

Since the swirl mixes black, silver, red, and blue tones, gloves in a cool blue or deep red lean into whichever color dominates a given seed, while neutral black or silver pairs stay safe across any arrangement. Steer clear of bright green or yellow gloves, which clash with the marbled palette. For the best Paracord Knife Marble Fade glove combo, match gloves to whichever flame color runs stronger on your seed.

What case is the Paracord Knife Marble Fade in?

It drops from the Fever Case, with no other source confirmed for this finish. The rare-special pull rate for any knife from that case lands at roughly 0.26%.
