★ Falchion Knife | Rust Coat (Battle-Scarred)

The ★ Falchion Knife | Rust Coat in Battle-Scarred (BS) is rusted steel on a curved blade in CS2, and the cheapest Falchion finish in this wear. Covert rank, with the ★ mark. The knife is dropped by two cases, Spectrum and Spectrum 2. The float here runs between 0.45 and 1.00. The finish has two wears: its float starts at 0.40, so nothing is better than Well-Worn (WW) here.

What the ★ Falchion Knife | Rust Coat looks like in Battle-Scarred

The blade and the handle frame look like old steel: gray-blue metal with orange and brown rust spots. The handle scales are dark gray, with silver screws. The blade curves toward the tip, and the end of the handle is hooked. The colors are muted, with no bright inserts and no lettering.

Valve describes the knife as a keepsake from a siege: it works, although the surface has rusted. The finish already depicts rusted steel, so the scuffs in Battle-Scarred do not argue with the artwork. They appeared at the drop and stay as they are.

Where the ★ Falchion Knife | Rust Coat came from

The Falchion arrived at the end of May 2015 with Operation Bloodhound. Valve wrote that the knife could be found only in the operation's case, and that case was called the Falchion Case. Rust Coat came to the model later: the finish drops from the Spectrum Case and the Spectrum 2 Case.

What to check before buying

What counts when buying the ★ Falchion Knife | Rust Coat:

• float: listings within 0.45 to 1.00 look noticeably different, so it is worth comparing by the number;


• name tag: a falchion can take one, and it stays on the knife after purchase.

Getting the ★ Falchion Knife | Rust Coat
