Stiletto Knife
The Stiletto Knife is the Horizon Case's sharp-dressed option — an Italian switchblade whose spring-snap deploy is one of the most satisfying sounds in the game. It sits in the upper-middle of the market: dressier than the budget folders, cheaper than the icons.

Stiletto Knife in CS2: Skins & Market Guide
Available from the Horizon and Danger Zone cases and via trade-ups since October 2025, the Stiletto commands a style premium over its case-mates (Ursus, Navaja) on the strength of that flick animation alone. Its slim blade suits clean, saturated finishes — Doppler phases, Fade, Marble Fade — where colour matters more than pattern detail, and those finishes dominate its trading volume. A strong "second knife" upgrade for owners graduating from entry models.
