| Wear | Steam Market | Cheapest Third-Party | Spread |
|---|---|---|---|
| Factory New | $1701.62 | $848.05 (Youpin (UU)) | +101% |
| Minimal Wear | $949.00 | $648.00 (CSFloat) | +46% |
| Field-Tested | $875.00 | $610.32 (CSFloat) | +43% |

| Battle-Scarred | $869.78 | $560.76 (Youpin (UU)) | +55% |
Steam takes roughly a 15% fee from the seller and balances can't be withdrawn, so a positive spread doesn't automatically mean arbitrage — it reflects the premium buyers pay for wallet-funded convenience.

About Butterfly Knife | Black Laminate

The defining characteristic of this weapon is the fan-like opening of a freely pivoting blade, allowing rapid deployment or concealment. As a result, butterfly knives are outlawed in many countries.
