★ Shadow Daggers | Lore (Battle-Scarred)

The ★ Shadow Daggers | Lore (Battle-Scarred) is the most heavily worn grade of this Covert ★ knotwork pair. It sits at the top of the finish's float range, where the paint shows its heaviest fading and scuffing.

Design

The knotwork treatment covers both blades identically across every copy of this finish, a woven paint pattern rather than a printed graphic. It's classed as Covert ★, the rare-special ("knife") tier that outranks any standard weapon skin.

★ Shadow Daggers | Lore (Battle-Scarred) Float and Wear

Battle-Scarred occupies the top of the Lore's float scale, roughly 0.45–1.00 — the highest-float, most heavily aged grade the finish reaches. Both blades show the deepest fading and scuffing here, a stark contrast to the crisp knotwork on a Factory New copy.

Shadow Daggers Lore Rarity

Covert ★ marks this as a rare-special ("knife") pull rather than an ordinary Covert weapon grade — the gold-tier category above the rest of the case's contents. Wear grade has no bearing on that rarity status.

Shadow Daggers Lore Case and Collection

Rather than one collection, the Lore finish drops from the Operation Riptide Case and the Dreams & Nightmares Case specifically. The rare-special tier as a whole lands at around 0.26% per case opened, so heavily worn copies like this one typically end up bought rather than unboxed fresh.

Shadow Daggers Lore Patterns

Even at this float, the knotwork layout is unchanged from any other copy — it's a fixed design with no seed-based variation to chase. The heavy wear at Battle-Scarred comes purely from the float number, not from a different underlying pattern.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak™ version of this pair exists too, permanently recording confirmed kills through every future trade or sale. Souvenir copies were never produced for it, because knives are never distributed through Major-tournament souvenir packages.

Shadow Daggers Lore Price

Battle-Scarred is the most accessible grade on the Lore's price ladder, sitting below every other wear, though the finish overall still ranks among this knife's pricier options. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

What does Battle-Scarred look like on the Shadow Daggers Lore?

It covers the 0.45–1.00 float band, the highest-float and most worn slice of the finish, so both blades show heavy fading and scuffing across the knotwork. It's the roughest-looking grade this finish offers, well past the wear visible at Well-Worn.

What's the cheapest way to own the Shadow Daggers Lore?

Battle-Scarred is the most accessible grade on the Lore's own price ladder, sitting below Well-Worn and every cleaner wear. The knotwork design stays exactly the same as on a Factory New copy — only the surface aging and price differ.

Does the Shadow Daggers Lore have a Souvenir version?

No — knives are never distributed through Major-tournament souvenir packages, so no Souvenir edition of the Lore exists at any wear grade. A StatTrak™ version is available instead, which permanently tracks confirmed kills.
