Karambit Case Hardened Blue Gem Seed Patterns: Complete Guide

Here you have all the seed patterns that make Karambit Case Hardened considered a blue gem, properly shown in the following table:

As you can see, the blue gem patterns for the Karambit Case Hardened are divided in tiers, and the main factor that will determine it is the percentage of blue on the playside. The bluer it is, the more expensive it will be, as it’s the case of the pattern #387, which will make a Karambit Case Hardened worth $1.5M.

You can use this information as a reference to determine how rare your Karambit Case Hardened is, or in case you want to buy one, so you can make a proper offer. In the next sections we will talk more about prices, so you can see how much your skin could be worth.

If you’re here because you read somewhere that a Karambit Blue Gem is one of the rarest skins in the game, but you still don’t know what makes a Karambit a Blue Gem, the following section will explain it all in simple terms. Let’s go.

For a Karambit to be considered a Blue Gem, it must meet the following requirements:

• It must have the Case Hardened finish, which features a special mix of colors, including blue, gray, gold and purple
• It must have a seed pattern with a predominant presence of blue, especially on the playside, which is highly valuable and sought-after by players, traders and collectionists, thanks to its exotic and outstanding beauty

If your Karambit shares these traits, congratulations. You have one of the most beautiful and valuable skins in CS:GO (CS2) and you can sell it for a nice premium!

For example if a Karambit has the Case Hardened Finish, but it has an even distribution of purple, blue, gray and gold on the playside, it cannot be considered a Blue Gem. Whereas if it has a higher percentage of blue, and a minimal presence of the other colors, then it will be labeled as a Blue Gem, and it will be more valuable as a result.
