Steam Market vs Third-Party Prices
The Steam Community Market usually lists Karambit | Case Hardenedhigher 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Minimal Wear | $1380.00 | $848.96 (DMarket) | +63% |
| Field-Tested | $1235.17 | $684.32 (Youpin (UU)) | +80% |
| Well-Worn | $1090.00 | $620.49 (Skin.Land) | +76% |
| Battle-Scarred | $983.50 | $606.49 (CSFloat) | +62% |
Steam takes roughly a 15% fee from the seller and balances can't be withdrawn, so a positive spread doesn't automatically mean arbitrage — it reflects the premium buyers pay for wallet-funded convenience.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 Karambit | Case Hardened
