Steam Market vs Third-Party Prices
The Steam Community Market usually lists Classic Knife | Fadehigher than third-party marketplaces — but Steam sales keep the funds in your Steam wallet, while third-party sales can cash out. The spread below compares Steam's listing price with the cheapest third-party offer per wear.
| Wear | Steam Market | Cheapest Third-Party | Spread |
|---|---|---|---|
| Factory New | $409.11 | $269.50 (CSFloat) | +52% |
| Minimal Wear | $567.21 | $303.48 (CSFloat) | +87% |

About Classic Knife | Fade
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 painted by airbrushing transparent paints that fade together over a chrome base coat.
