★ StatTrak™ Shadow Daggers | Damascus Steel (Factory New)

What the StatTrak™ counter does

The ★ StatTrak™ Shadow Daggers | Damascus Steel (Factory New, FN) is the StatTrak™ copy of this skin — the same Covert ★ finish, the same look, with a kill counter built into the model. Damascus Steel keeps things understated: a white-toned coat carries sections built to look like layered, rippling damascus steel across both blades, with no bright paintwork or graphics — the folded-steel texture is the entire design. Factory New is the cleanest grade this skin comes in and the one buyers pay the most for, covering the 0.00–0.07 band of the float scale.

What StatTrak™ changes about the price of the Shadow Daggers | Damascus Steel

The counter logs every confirmed kill you get with it and keeps the running total on the model. It belongs to the item and not to your account, so it travels with the skin through every trade and sale, and nothing sets it back to zero. A StatTrak™ Swap Tool moves a count between two StatTrak™ items of the same type, which is as close to a reset as the game allows.

Where a StatTrak™ copy comes from

A StatTrak™ copy is far scarcer than a plain one at the same finish and exterior, so it normally costs more. How much more follows the finish and the float rather than the number on the counter — a high kill count is a curiosity, not a price driver.

FAQ

This finish drops from the Spectrum Case and the Spectrum 2 Case, with the rare-special ("knife") tier landing around 0.26% per case opening — long odds that push most buyers toward the market instead of a fresh unbox. StatTrak™ is settled at the drop: a copy either leaves the case with a counter or never has one, and it cannot be added afterwards.

Can the StatTrak counter on the Shadow Daggers | Damascus Steel be reset?

No. The count only moves one way and stays with the item through every trade and sale. A StatTrak™ Swap Tool moves a count between two StatTrak™ items of the same type, which is as close to a reset as the game allows. It still cannot lower the number.

Does StatTrak change how the Shadow Daggers | Damascus Steel looks?

No, apart from the counter on the model. The finish, the pattern and the float range are identical to the plain version, so at the same exterior the two look the same in hand.
