Karambit
Buy Karambit Knife Skins on Skin.Land
The Karambit is a Covert ★ melee knife in CS2, instantly recognizable by its curved, claw-like blade and one of the most prestigious status symbols you can carry into a match. This page covers every Karambit finish you can buy on Skin.Land — from sub-$400 classics to five-figure grails — with current prices and where each one fits.
Top picks at a glance: Doppler Black Pearl (grail) / Fade (clean all-rounder) / Safari Mesh (cheapest way in).
What Is the Karambit in CS2?
Modeled on the real-life Southeast Asian karambit, this knife has been in the game since the 2013 Arms Deal update that first brought melee skins to Counter-Strike. It drops from most knife-eligible cases and sits in the Covert (★) rarity tier, so it has never been cheap — but that scarcity is exactly why a Karambit on your loadout turns heads.
Karambit Knife Prices
Karambit prices swing wildly with the finish, float, and pattern. The cheapest solid-color finishes — Safari Mesh, Boreal Forest, Forest DDPAT, Scorched — start around $370–400, which is the most affordable way to get a real Karambit in your inventory. From there it climbs fast: Fade sits near $1,880, Doppler Sapphire around $4,620, and the true grails — Doppler Ruby (~$7,290), Gamma Doppler Emerald (~$7,520), and the top-dog Doppler Black Pearl (~$8,970) — run well into four and five figures. Prices move daily, so sort the listings by price to see the exact number.
Most Expensive and Cheapest Karambit Skins
At the top end, the gem Dopplers rule: Doppler Black Pearl, Gamma Doppler Emerald, and Doppler Ruby are the crown jewels, with Fade and Marble Fade close behind as slightly-more-attainable showpieces. A blue-gem Case Hardened can also spike far above its base price depending on the pattern.
On the budget end, the plain military finishes — Safari Mesh, Boreal Forest, Urban Masked, Scorched — are the cheapest way to own the claw, and higher-wear (Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred) copies shave the price down even further. Use the float and price filters together to surface the best deal on the finish you want.
