★ Classic Knife | Stained (Factory New)

The ★ Classic Knife | Stained (Factory New) is a Covert knife finish carrying a forced patina of lemon and mustard dripped over a gray-and-white base. Factory New is the lowest-float grade available, showing that mottled patina at its most defined.

Design

The look comes from a deliberate patina treatment, with lemon and mustard dripped onto the metal to leave uneven gray-and-white staining rather than a flat painted color. It ships with a fitting warning of a line: "If you think it's messy now, wait until you see it under a blacklight."

★ Classic Knife | Stained (Factory New) Float and Wear

Stained runs the finish's full 0.00–1.00 float scale, and Factory New sits in the 0.00–0.07 band — its lowest-float, best-defined grade. The mottled staining is at its sharpest here, with the gray-and-white contrast easy to make out before any handling wear sets in.

Classic Knife | Stained Rarity

This is a Covert ★ item — not a standard weapon skin but a rare special drop, the gold tier that outranks every regular case rarity. Pulling a knife of any finish is already a long shot.

Classic Knife | Stained Case and Collection

Stained comes from the CS20 Case. Rare special items land at around 0.26 percent per opening, a rate that covers the knife tier as a whole rather than this finish specifically, so most owners buy their copy rather than chase an unbox.

Classic Knife | Stained Patterns

Unlike a fixed design, the patina here does shift with the seed — some copies show a cleaner, more even stain while others run blotchier, so it's worth comparing seeds if you care about the exact look. There's no rare "blue gem" tier though; it's a matter of taste, not a value-driving pattern.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak version exists, adding a confirmed-kill counter that stays with the knife permanently through every trade or sale. There's no Souvenir edition, since Souvenir weapons only come from Major-tournament packages, and knives are never part of that pool.

Classic Knife | Stained Price

Factory New sits at the top of the Stained ladder, and even here it remains the most accessible entry point into this knife overall — a premium item, but the friendliest-priced way onto this particular model. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

What case is the Stained Classic Knife from?

It drops from the CS20 Case along with the knife's other finishes. Like any rare special item, the odds sit near 0.26 percent, a rate shared across the whole knife tier rather than tied to this finish alone, which is why most buyers simply purchase one directly.

Does the pattern seed matter on Stained?

Yes, more than on the knife's fixed-design finishes. The patina texture genuinely varies copy to copy — some seeds land a cleaner, more even stain, others a blotchier one — so it's worth checking a few listings if the exact look matters to you, even though there's no rare blue-gem-style seed to hunt.

What are the best gloves for the ★ Classic Knife | Stained?

The gray-and-white patina pairs well with muted, earthy tones — think olive, tan, or off-white gloves that echo the mustard-and-lemon staining rather than fighting it. Skip anything bright or glossy, which will clash with the weathered look. For the best Classic Knife Stained glove combo, go with a worn-looking tan or olive pair to match the finish's grungy vibe.
