★ StatTrak™ Talon Knife | Blue Steel (Battle-Scarred)

What the StatTrak™ counter does

The ★ StatTrak™ Talon Knife | Blue Steel (Battle-Scarred, BS) is the StatTrak™ copy of this skin — the same Covert ★ finish, the same look, with a kill counter built into the model. Heavy wear doesn't touch the underlying artwork — the ivory grip, brass rivets, and saw-tooth
ridges Valve built into this blade stay exactly the same, just harder to appreciate at a glance. Battle-Scarred covers everything from 0.45 up to 1.00 float — the most heavily worn grade and the cheapest way into the skin.

What StatTrak™ changes about the price of the Talon Knife | Blue 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

Battle-Scarred Blue Steel comes from the same sources as every other wear — the Horizon Case
and the Danger Zone Case, with no dedicated collection behind it. 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 Talon Knife | Blue 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 Talon Knife | Blue 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.
