★ Karambit | Lore (Field-Tested)

The ★ Karambit | Lore in Field-Tested (FT) is a CS2 karambit with a golden-yellow blade and a braided pattern across the flat. Covert rank, with the ★ mark. Cases that hold it: the Gamma Case and the Gamma 2 Case. The finish exists in all five wears, its float runs from 0.00 to 0.65, and Field-Tested takes 35% of the scale. This wear lies between 0.15 and 0.38.

What the ★ Karambit | Lore looks like in Field-Tested

The blade and the ring are golden-yellow. A band of interwoven ribbons crosses the wide part of the blade and follows the curve of the point. The handle is dark green, ribbed, with finger grooves. Valve writes that the blade is curved like a tiger's claw and painted with a knotwork design, meaning woven knots.

There are no two different designs on the ★ Karambit | Lore. In Field-Tested the gold is already scuffed, with marks on the point and the raised edges, and the wear stays bound to the copy from the drop.

Where the ★ Karambit | Lore came from

The finish's first source was the Gamma Case, which came out on June 15, 2016 in the Gamma Exposure update. The second source is the Gamma 2 Case.

What to check before buying

When choosing the ★ Karambit | Lore, pay attention to the following:

• The point and the golden ring: they show where the paint is already rubbed.


• Applied name: a name tag is allowed on the karambit, but the knife has no stickers.


• Edition: a StatTrak karambit is listed as a separate product.

For the ★ Karambit | Lore the float number matters more than the label, since the 0.15 to 0.38 band holds different looks.

What the ★ Karambit | Lore costs in Field-Tested

Factory New costs 1.96 times as much, Minimal Wear 1.33 times, and Well-Worn 1.08 times. Battle-Scarred is 1.19 times cheaper.

Among the eighteen karambit finishes with a price in this wear, the Lore is seventh from the top: six above, eleven below. Crimson Web costs 11% more, Damascus Steel is level, and Stained is 8% cheaper. Freehand and Ultraviolet are a seventh lower. The bottom of the row is Boreal Forest, about a third cheaper.

Getting the ★ Karambit | Lore

The Karambit | Lore drops from the Gamma Case and the Gamma 2 Case, and the wear is set when the case is opened. A contract is the second road to a rare special item: five Covert skins from one collection give a knife, but its model and finish cannot be assigned. The karambit you need is bought as a ready-made lot.

Is there a StatTrak version

A StatTrak version of the Karambit | Lore exists in the game.

Who this wear suits

Buying the ★ Karambit | Lore in Field-Tested is sensible if:

• You want a golden karambit, and the design is one for the whole finish, so copies differ only in wear.


• You do not need the top wear: Factory New costs 1.96 times as much.


• Your CS2 loadout is built on gold and dark green, and the handle picks up the dark green.
