★ Butterfly Knife | Tiger Tooth (Factory New)

The ★ Butterfly Knife | Tiger Tooth in Factory New (FN) is an orange butterfly knife for CS2 with dark tiger stripes. Covert rank, with the ★ mark. The finish comes from the Spectrum Case and the Spectrum 2 Case. Its float tops out at 0.08, so Factory New takes the 0.00 to 0.07 band and Minimal Wear (MW) takes the remainder. There is no third wear.

What the ★ Butterfly Knife | Tiger Tooth looks like in Factory New

Valve describes the finish as orange anodizing with hand engraving in the form of tiger stripes. On the blade that means an amber-orange field crossed by dark diagonal strokes, with the metal turning lighter toward the edge. The handles are black, an orange inlay runs along each half, and the latch is orange as well. There is a single color here, and the pattern rests on stripes rather than on transitions.

In Factory New the anodized layer is intact on the tip of the blade and on the raised ribs of the handles. Marks of wear appear there first. The float is recorded at the drop, so a copy at 0.00 stays exactly as it fell.

What to check before buying

When picking a Butterfly Knife | Tiger Tooth listing, this is what counts:

• float: in this wear the band is a narrow 0.00 to 0.07, and copies hardly differ from one another;


• name tag: one can go on the knife, while stickers are not available;


• wear in the lot title: Factory New and Minimal Wear are listed as different items.

What the ★ Butterfly Knife | Tiger Tooth costs in Factory New

Here Minimal Wear costs almost a third more than the top wear. For a finish whose scale ends at 0.08, the extra money buys the more worn condition, not a cleaner one.

Among butterfly knife finishes, Tiger Tooth sits below Autotronic, which costs a fifth more, and slightly below Urban Masked and Scorched. Stained and Boreal Forest are cheaper by 5 to 8 percent. Further down come the camouflage finishes, then Black Laminate, Damascus Steel, Freehand and Bright Water.

Getting the ★ Butterfly Knife | Tiger Tooth

The Butterfly Knife | Tiger Tooth drops from the Spectrum Case and the Spectrum 2 Case, and the wear you receive is random. A contract is the second route: five Covert skins from one collection produce one rare special item, but you do not choose the finish. A tiger butterfly knife is bought as a ready listing.

Is there a StatTrak version

The Butterfly Knife | Tiger Tooth is also available with StatTrak in the game.

Who this wear suits

Factory New makes sense for the Butterfly Knife | Tiger Tooth under these conditions:

• you want an orange knife without the expensive Doppler gems;


• your CS2 loadout is built on orange and black;


• an untouched edge matters to you, and the premium for Minimal Wear does not.
