★ Butterfly Knife | Marble Fade (Factory New)

The ★ Butterfly Knife | Marble Fade in Factory New (FN) puts red, blue and yellow on a single CS2 blade, with no phases in the name. Covert rank, with the ★ mark. The butterfly drops from the Spectrum Case and the Spectrum 2 Case. There are two wears, since the finish's scale ends at 0.08. Factory New takes 0.00 to 0.07, and Minimal Wear (MW) takes the band up to 0.08.

What the ★ Butterfly Knife | Marble Fade looks like in Factory New

Valve describes the finish as black and silver metallic paint with a marbling medium, covered by a lacquer in three colors. The blade is red-violet at the tip, then blue, with a yellow band across the middle and red again at the heel. The handles are black, with a red-orange stripe down each half.

The marble reads as smooth swirls, not as a pattern with sharp edges. In Factory New no bare metal shows anywhere. The first traces of wear land on the toe of the blade and the raised ribs, and in Minimal Wear they are already possible.

What to check before buying

What separates one Butterfly Knife | Marble Fade listing from another comes down to these things:

• the image of the specific listing: check the colors on the blade against the picture, not the name;


• name tag: the knife can carry one, and it has no stickers;


• float: in this wear it is a narrow 0.00 to 0.07 band, and copies barely differ from each other.

What the ★ Butterfly Knife | Marble Fade costs in Factory New

The top wear is cheaper than Minimal Wear by about an eighth, so a clean edge does not call for an extra payment.

Among Butterfly finishes, Marble Fade is level with Slaughter and a little above Blue Steel and Autotronic. Case Hardened is a seventh higher, Doppler Phase 3 is 1.6 times as much, and Phase 1 almost twice. Tiger Tooth is cheaper by about a fifth.

Getting the ★ Butterfly Knife | Marble Fade

The Butterfly Knife | Marble Fade drops from the Spectrum and Spectrum 2 cases, with a random wear. A contract works differently: five Covert skins from one collection give one rare special item, but neither the model nor the finish can be chosen on the way in. A Marble Fade in the wear you need is bought as a ready listing.

Is there a StatTrak version

A StatTrak™ version of the ★ Butterfly Knife | Marble Fade exists in the game.

Who this wear suits

Buying the ★ Butterfly Knife | Marble Fade in Factory New makes sense in three cases:

• you want a bright multicolor butterfly, and Doppler gems are out of budget;


• an untouched edge matters for your CS2 loadout;


• you would rather not pay more for Minimal Wear, which costs more than the top wear.
