★ Skeleton Knife | Scorched (Factory New)

The ★ Skeleton Knife | Scorched (Factory New) is a Covert knife finish wrapped in a sun-dappled gray spray pattern that gives the steel a scorched, weathered look. Factory New is the lowest-float grade this finish comes in, so those light-and-dark blotches show at their most distinct here.

Design

The blade is spray-painted in overlapping patches of light and dark gray, mimicking dappled sunlight falling across scorched metal. It pairs with an in-game line that leans into the theme: "The Phoenix is not a symbol of destruction... it's a symbol of rebirth."

★ Skeleton Knife | Scorched (Factory New) Float and Wear

This finish runs from 0.06 to 0.80 float, so Factory New is the cleanest of the five available wear grades rather than a full 0.00 start. It covers the 0.06–0.07 band, the lowest slice on offer, where the gray blotch pattern reads crisp with no surface haze dulling the contrast.

Skeleton Knife | Scorched Rarity

Rarity: Covert ★ — a rare special ("knife") item, the gold-tier drop from its case pool rather than an ordinary weapon skin. Pulling any knife at all from a case is a long shot before you even get to the specific finish.

Skeleton Knife | Scorched Case and Collection

Scorched is one of the finish options this knife can roll, obtainable from a wide range of cases, including the Shattered Web Case and the Fracture Case among others. Knife drops as a whole land at roughly 0.26% per case opening, so most copies people own were bought on the market rather than unboxed.

Skeleton Knife | Scorched Patterns

This finish has a fixed design — the paint-seed index does not change how the sun-dappled pattern looks, and every copy carries the same blotch layout across the blade. There is no blue-gem seed or "best pattern" to chase here; wear and float are the only things that separate one copy from another.

StatTrak & Souvenir

This knife comes as both a regular and a StatTrak version, the latter tracking confirmed kills with a counter that stays with the item through every trade or sale. There is no Souvenir Scorched — knives are never handed out in Major-tournament souvenir packages, regardless of case or collection.

Skeleton Knife | Scorched Price

Factory New sits at the low-float end of the Scorched's own price ladder, priced above every worse-condition copy as the grade buyers pay extra for. Across this knife's full finish lineup it's the most accessible entry point — still a genuinely premium item, since no knife is ever cheap. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is Factory New worth it over Minimal Wear on the Scorched?

The gap is real but not dramatic — Minimal Wear still shows the pattern clearly, just with a touch more surface texture creeping in. Factory New earns its premium mostly from the lowest-float bragging rights and the crispest possible contrast between the light and dark blotches, so it comes down to whether that matters to you.

What are the best gloves for the Skeleton Knife | Scorched?

Neutral gray or ashen gloves let the scorched pattern blend naturally, while a subtle olive or khaki pair plays up the weathered, tactical vibe without clashing. For the best Skeleton Knife Scorched glove combo, go with muted earth tones and steer clear of bright, saturated colors that fight the smoky look.

How rare is this finish compared to other knife skins?

Every knife pull is rare on its own — the whole category lands at roughly 0.26% per case opening — and Scorched specifically sits at the accessible end of this knife's own lineup, though "accessible" for a knife still means a solid premium price tag.
