★ Huntsman Knife | Damascus Steel (Field-Tested)

★ Huntsman Knife | Damascus Steel in Field-Tested (FT) is a CS2 knife with a light blade, wavy Damascus lines and a dark handle. It is Covert rank, with the ★ mark, and it comes from the Spectrum Case and the Spectrum 2 Case. There are five wears, from Factory New to Battle-Scarred, and the finish's scale runs from 0.00 to 0.50.

What the ★ Huntsman Knife | Damascus Steel looks like in Field-Tested

The blade is silver-white, with a broad tanto point and serrations along the spine. Thin winding lines run across the flat, like the layers on a cut face: this is Damascus steel as Valve draws it. The handle is dark graphite with a ribbed overlay and screws, and the steel guard is left light.

Field-Tested takes up almost half the scale of the finish: the band from 0.15 to 0.38 is 0.23 out of 0.50. The wear is built into the copy at the drop and does not change after purchase.

Where the ★ Huntsman Knife | Damascus Steel came from

The model itself appeared in the game in May 2014. A Valve note of May 2 announced the Huntsman Weapon Case, and the knife came out together with it. The Damascus Steel finish reached the model later and drops from the Spectrum Case and the Spectrum 2 Case. The Spectrum Case itself was released on March 15, 2017.

What to check before buying

In a ★ Huntsman Knife | Damascus Steel lot, these are the parameters to check:

• float: this wear lies between 0.15 and 0.38, and the choice has to be made inside the band, since the gap between its top and bottom is noticeable;


• name tag: a huntsman knife takes one, and the inscription stays on the item after purchase.

What the ★ Huntsman Knife | Damascus Steel costs in Field-Tested

Of the five wears, Field-Tested is the cheapest one. Factory New costs almost one and a half times as much, Minimal Wear a seventh more, Well-Worn almost a quarter more and Battle-Scarred a fifth more.

Among the Covert finishes of the Huntsman Knife, this one sits in the middle of the row. Night stands level with it, and Scorched is about a fifth cheaper. Stained, Autotronic and Lore cost a seventh more, or slightly above that. The cheapest finishes of the model, Safari Mesh, Bright Water and Boreal Forest, are about a third lower. At the top stand Blue Steel, Case Hardened and Slaughter, all three clearly higher.

Getting the ★ Huntsman Knife | Damascus Steel

The ★ Huntsman Knife | Damascus Steel is dropped by the Spectrum Case and the Spectrum 2 Case, and the condition of the knife is set at random on opening. The alternative is a contract: five Covert skins go in, and a rare special item comes out. A contract does not guarantee a particular knife, so the finish you want is bought as a ready lot.

Is there a StatTrak version

A StatTrak version of the ★ Huntsman Knife | Damascus Steel exists in the game.

Who this wear suits

Buying the ★ Huntsman Knife | Damascus Steel in Field-Tested is reasonable in these cases:

• you want a light blade with a Damascus steel pattern and see no point in paying extra for the higher wears;


• in CS2 the blade fits a gray-and-black loadout with steel details;


• you want a float near the start of the 0.15 to 0.38 band and the lowest price among the wears at the same time.
