CSDB value is an estimate from recorded sales and cleaned marketplace asks, shown as a range. "Best price" is the lowest listing that survived outlier checks. Where a wear has only a few asks and no recorded sales, CSDB shows the ask and declines to value it. Method

  • Float premium within a wear:not published yet. Measuring it needs completed sales with their exact floats, and CSDB does not hold enough of those for this skin to separate a float premium from ordinary price noise. Load the individual listings above to see how each item's float sits within its wear.

Lowest Floats on the Market

Fade Pattern Analysis

Fade is pattern-dependent: the paint seed (0–999) changes how far the colour gradient runs along the blade — quoted as a fade percentage — and how much of the final colour reaches the tip.

That makes two Bowie Knifes of the same wear and float different items with different prices. The value CSDB publishes for each wear is the base value — what a typical pattern sells for. A premium for a sought-after seed belongs to that individual item and is shown against the base value in the individual listings, never folded into it.

CSDB does not publish Fade pattern tiers or a fixed premium: we do not yet hold enough completed sales by paint seed to derive one, and a tier list without sales behind it would be opinion presented as data.

About ★ Bowie Knife | Fade

This full-tang sawback Bowie knife is designed for heavy use in brutal survival situations. It has been painted by airbrushing transparent paints that fade together over a chrome base coat.

★ Bowie Knife | Fade is a Covert knife finish, on the market since 2016. It drops in StatTrak™ as well as the standard version.
