★ Butterfly Knife Rust Coat

★ Butterfly Knife Rust Coat

Description

This unique balisong, more commonly known as a butterfly knife, showcases a custom design that stands out due to its distinct fan-like mechanism. The blade, which pivots freely, allows for swift deployment or easy concealment, making it a weapon of choice for those who value agility. However, due to its potential for rapid use, butterfly knives are banned in many parts of the world. Despite its age and the rust that has settled on its exterior, this knife remains fully functional. It’s a weapon for those who are unapologetic about the gritty nature of their actions, reflecting a raw and untamed spirit.

The ★ Butterfly Knife | Rust Coat made its debut in CS2 on March 15th, 2017, marking its presence with the release of the Spectrum 2 Case.

Players can acquire the ★ Butterfly Knife | Rust Coat by unboxing it from either a Spectrum 2 Case or the original Spectrum Case. Notably, this skin is not tied to any specific in-game collections, which adds to its enigmatic appeal.

Versions

The condition of the ★ Butterfly Knife | Rust Coat is determined by its float value, which ranges from 0.40 to 1.00. This range means the skin is only available in Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred conditions. Additionally, for those looking for extra flair, there is a StatTrak version available for each exterior, allowing players to track their kills with style.

This Butterfly Knife is finished in a "Patina" style, specifically with the Rust Coat look. A patina forms through a chemical reaction, creating a durable, non-reactive layer over the metal surface. This process is similar to techniques like case hardening, cold bluing, or forced patinas seen on real-world weapons. The Rust Coat finish, primarily rendered in shades of gray, varies in appearance depending on its pattern index, giving each knife a unique look, much like the battle-hardened warriors who wield them.

In addition to its striking appearance, the Rust Coat finish tells a story of time and wear, a narrative that appeals to those who appreciate the beauty in imperfection and the art of survival against the odds.
