The Blue Steel uses a Patina finish technique (paint index #42). Inspired by the natural aging process of metals, the Patina finish imitates the look of a weapon that has been exposed to the elements over time. It features a weathered, tarnished appearance, often with shades of copper or bronze, giving the weapon an antique or vintage character. This skin currently uses the legacy CS:GO model.
A classic of the Counter-Strike series, the edge of this knife is press-fit Stellite perfectly held in place due to its precise fit with the titanium on the blade's cheek and spine. The handle is fossilized mastodon ivory held in a carbon fibre pocket. It has been cold blued.
The Classic Knife is classified as a knife in CS2. Base damage output is 34. See all Classic Knife skins for additional options.
