★ Talon Knife | Night Stripe (Field-Tested)

The ★ Talon Knife | Night Stripe in Field-Tested (FT) is a dark Talon Knife for CS2 with a camouflage of diagonal stripes. Covert rank, with the ★ mark. The finish appears in two cases, the Horizon Case and the Danger Zone Case. The float here starts not at zero but at 0.06 and stretches to 0.80, and Field-Tested takes 31% of that scale. In this wear the ★ Talon Knife | Night Stripe lies between 0.15 and 0.38.

What the ★ Talon Knife | Night Stripe looks like in Field-Tested

The blade and the handle are painted one color: a dark gray-blue, almost slate. Diagonal facets run across it, a little lighter and a little darker than the base, like traces of masking tape. The cutting edge is light, the spine carries three round holes and teeth, and the finger ring is dark too.

Valve describes the finish as a pattern through a tape mask in a night color range. On such a dark ground the marks of Field-Tested are visible on the edge and the point, where the metal shows as a light stripe. The copy will not pick up new scratches, because wear is recorded at the moment of drop.

What to check before buying

The choice of a particular ★ Talon Knife | Night Stripe comes down to these points:

• float: the 0.15 to 0.38 band holds both a tidy knife and a noticeably worn one;


• the name tag: the Talon Knife takes a name tag, but not stickers.

The pattern of the ★ Talon Knife | Night Stripe is fixed and does not depend on the copy. In this wear the band holds both 0.15 and 0.38, and such listings look different.

What the ★ Talon Knife | Night Stripe costs in Field-Tested

Factory New costs 3.70 times as much: the scale starts at 0.06, and the top wear is left with the stretch 0.06 to 0.07. Minimal Wear costs 1.26 times as much and Well-Worn 1.04 times, while Battle-Scarred is 1.09 times cheaper.

Among Talon Knife finishes, Night Stripe is cheaper than Ultraviolet and Stained but dearer than Urban Masked, Scorched, Forest DDPAT and Boreal Forest. Safari Mesh is the cheapest.

Getting the ★ Talon Knife | Night Stripe
