The lowest float in CS2 belongs to a MAC-10 | Bronzer with a float of 0.00000000010431. It dropped to a player as a weekly drop in 2025 and is considered the lowest float in the game's history. Float sets a skin's wear on a scale from 0 to 1, and the lower it is, the cleaner the surface looks. Copies below 0.001 are rare and sell above regular Factory New prices.
Float is one of the key parameters behind a skin's price because it directly affects how the skin looks. The value has more than ten decimal places, so floats vary noticeably even inside Factory New. The wear brackets are:
Factory New: 0.00 to 0.07;
Minimal Wear: 0.07 to 0.15;
Field-Tested: 0.15 to 0.38;
Well-Worn: 0.38 to 0.45;
Battle-Scarred: 0.45 to 1.00.
Our article on skin wear levels in order covers the brackets in detail, and the float and wear guide explains why weapons never age in-game. Float is fixed when an item drops and never changes afterward.
MAC-10 Bronzer - 0.00000000010431
The record copy went to a player called nnbkl. The MAC-10 | Bronzer from the Radiant Collection is a Consumer Grade skin, and a regular Factory New copy costs under a dollar. After checking the float, the owner found a value of 0.00000000010431, the lowest ever recorded for a skin.
The find quickly drew collectors' attention. According to community reports, this MAC-10 was soon sold and later resold for tens of thousands of dollars.
If you want to buy skins with the lowest float on LIS-SKINS, use the float sorting option in our catalog. You can also set a specific float range. Below are a few low-float examples that have appeared in our catalog. Individual listings sell quickly, so each entry gives the current starting price for a regular Factory New copy; a record-low float always costs more.
Talon Knife Tiger Tooth - 0.000048
The orange tiger stripes on the blade make this finish instantly recognizable, and the predatory design suits the claw-like curve of the knife. The Talon Knife | Tiger Tooth only exists in the 0 to 0.08 float range, so nearly every copy is Factory New, and the best floats within that range carry a premium. A regular Factory New starts around $450.
Flip Knife Marble Fade - 0.000142
For fade-style finishes high quality matters most, since any scratch stands out on the shimmering surface. This Flip Knife | Marble Fade has no such issue because its float is about as close to zero as it gets. A regular Factory New starts around $250. For how Fade and Doppler differ, see our Fade vs Doppler comparison.
Bowie Knife Gamma Doppler Phase 2 - 0.000165
The surface of this Bowie Knife | Gamma Doppler Phase 2 carries a blue-green pattern whose placement depends on the pattern index. However the pattern lands, a low float shows all of it. A regular Phase 2 in Factory New starts around $200. Our guide to Gamma Doppler phases explains how the phases differ.
Skeleton Knife Fade - 0.000196
Compared with the skins above, the Skeleton Knife | Fade looks a bit simpler, but the fade gradient works well on the straight blade. A regular Factory New starts around $480, with low-float copies costing more.
M4A4 Buzz Kill - 0.000200
Low floats show up more often on skins with a narrow wear range: Fade, Doppler and Tiger Tooth are capped at 0 to 0.08. They also happen on weapons with a wide range. The M4A4 | Buzz Kill spans 0 to 0.70, which makes a 0.0002 float especially rare for it. A regular Factory New costs about $430, and StatTrak about $170.
Shadow Daggers Freehand - 0.000222
The Shadow Daggers | Freehand are less popular than other knives, but they look good in clean condition. Most of the surface is covered in a fine pen-drawn ornament, so the absence of scratches matters a lot here. It is one of the most affordable knives with low-float potential: a regular Factory New costs about $50.
Butterfly Knife Marble Fade - 0.000243
If you want one of the brightest knives in the game in a minimal-float version, the Butterfly Knife | Marble Fade fits the bill. A regular Factory New starts around $1,350, and a record-float copy costs noticeably more, but nothing will break up the finish.
Glock-18 Fade - 0.000282
Another gun where float matters a lot is the Glock-18 | Fade. The top of the slide carries an unmistakable gradient, and a minimal float keeps the design flawless. This Assault Collection skin does not come from cases and starts around $1,350 even as a regular Factory New, with collectors paying extra for a low-float copy.
How to Find a Low Float Skin
Look at finishes with a narrow wear range (Fade, Doppler, Tiger Tooth), where low floats come up more often.
Decide whether you need a record float. On most skins the difference between 0.001 and 0.01 is barely visible, so paying for it mainly makes sense for collectors. Our article on Factory New vs Minimal Wear helps choose between wears.
In a trade-up contract the output float depends on the floats of the input skins, which is one way low-float items are made. See our guide to the trade-up contract in CS2.
