★ Gut Knife | Bright Water (Field-Tested)

The ★ Gut Knife | Bright Water in Field-Tested (FT) is a CS2 knife with a hook on the spine, blue camouflage on the blade and a blue handle. Covert rank, with the ★ mark. Its sources are the Gamma Case and the Gamma 2 Case. All five wears exist, and the finish's float scale runs from 0.00 to 0.50. This wear sits between 0.15 and 0.38.

What the ★ Gut Knife | Bright Water looks like in Field-Tested

The blade is covered in blue camouflage: dark blue and cornflower patches with light blue swirls between them. A hook sits on the spine near the point, which Valve's description gives as the model's main feature. The handle is smooth and blue, with rivets and a lanyard hole at the end. Valve describes the finish in one line: blue camouflage applied with hydrographic film.

In Field-Tested the paint wears off the point, the hook and the rivets on the handle. Wear is set at the drop, and from then on the knife stays as it dropped. For the ★ Gut Knife | Bright Water the float number matters more than the label: the band from 0.15 to 0.38 holds a range of looks.

What to check before buying

Choosing a particular ★ Gut Knife | Bright Water comes down to these points:

• float: nearer 0.15, the blue camouflage and the hook are cleaner;


• pattern: every copy of the ★ Gut Knife | Bright Water carries the same design, so they differ only in wear;


• the applied name: a name tag goes on a knife with a hook, and the text stays on the item after purchase.
