★ Gut Knife | Marble Fade (Factory New)

The ★ Gut Knife | Marble Fade (Factory New) is a Covert ★ knife finish, black and silver metallic paints swirled in a marbleizing medium and candy coated in three colors. Factory New covers the 0.00–0.07 band of the float scale, the cleanest grade this finish comes in, letting that swirl show through with maximum clarity.

Design

The finish starts from black and silver metallic paints worked through a marbleizing medium, then gets candy coated in three colors, and it ships with the flavor line "The blade is made of many colors, but soon it all looks red." No two copies swirl the same way, since the pattern forms from the individual paint seed.

★ Gut Knife | Marble Fade (Factory New) Float and Wear

Marble Fade is float-capped between 0.00 and 0.08, so only Factory New and Minimal Wear ever exist — this finish never wears past a near-mint look no matter the copy. At Factory New the blade sits at the absolute low end of that range, giving the sharpest read on exactly how the swirl lands. Factory New covers about 0.00–0.07 on the float scale.

Gut Knife | Marble Fade Rarity

Rarity: Covert ★ — this isn't a standard Covert skin but the gold-tier rare special, the "knife" slot that sits above every ordinary weapon grade in a case. Pulling one at all is the rare outcome, long before wear or pattern even enters the picture.

Gut Knife | Marble Fade Case and Collection

This finish isn't tied to a single collection — it comes from the Chroma line of cases, spanning the Chroma Case, Chroma 2 Case, and Chroma 3 Case. The rare-special ("knife") tier as a whole lands at roughly 0.26% per case opening, so most buyers pick one up on the market rather than chase that pull across three different cases.

Gut Knife Marble Fade Patterns

Marble Fade's swirl comes down to the paint seed, and collectors chase specific arrangements rather than any single percentage. The grail is "Fire & Ice" — red and blue flames meeting cleanly on the edge — which commands a large premium, while "Max Fire" (red-dominant) and "Max Ice" (blue-dominant) patterns are also prized. That swirl is fixed per copy and never shifts with wear, so what you see at unbox is what you keep for good. At Factory New the pattern is at its most legible, which is exactly when a Fire & Ice or Max Fire/Ice copy shows best.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak™ version of this knife exists and tracks confirmed kills permanently, carrying that count through any trade or sale. There's no Souvenir version at all — knives are never included in Major-tournament souvenir packages, full stop, regardless of case or collection.

Gut Knife | Marble Fade Price

Factory New sits at the top of the Marble Fade's own price ladder, ahead of Minimal Wear, and lands in the mid-tier range among this knife's finishes overall — still a premium item, just not the priciest way to own a Gut Knife. A Fire & Ice or Max Fire/Ice pattern can push an individual copy well above that baseline. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

What case is the Gut Knife Marble Fade in?

It comes from the Chroma line of cases — the Chroma Case, Chroma 2 Case, and Chroma 3 Case all carry it rather than one single box. That spread across three cases is a big reason most buyers get theirs on the market instead of hunting a specific opening.

What is the best Gut Knife Marble Fade pattern?

Fire & Ice is the grail — red and blue flames meeting cleanly on the edge — and it commands a large premium over an average copy. Max Fire (red-dominant) and Max Ice (blue-dominant) patterns are also prized. The swirl is set by the paint seed and fixed for the copy's whole life, so it never changes as the knife wears.

Does the Gut Knife Marble Fade have StatTrak?

Yes, a StatTrak™ version exists with a permanent confirmed-kill counter that follows the knife through trades and sales. There's no Souvenir version, though — knives are simply never part of Major-tournament souvenir packages, no matter the finish or case.
