★ Shadow Daggers | Autotronic (Field-Tested)

The ★ Shadow Daggers | Autotronic in Field-Tested (FT) are a pair of CS2 push daggers with dark steel and red-pink anodizing. Covert rank, with the ★ mark. The pairs drop from the Operation Riptide Case and the Dreams & Nightmares Case. The finish has five wears and a float scale of 0.00 to 0.85, and Field-Tested takes the band from 0.15 to 0.38 on it.

What the ★ Shadow Daggers | Autotronic look like in Field-Tested

These are two leaf-shaped blades with a ridge down the middle. The steel is dark, and at the base of each blade sits an anodized insert in a red-pink shade. The insert has two rivets, one of them round with a steel mesh: Valve writes that the mesh makes the knife lighter. The frame handles are the same red-pink, with several finger cutouts.

The first things to show wear in Field-Tested are the points of the blades and the edges of the frames. Wear is fixed at drop, and both halves of the pair stay as they fell.

Where the ★ Shadow Daggers | Autotronic came from

The finish debuted in the Operation Riptide Case, and the operation started on September 22, 2021. It was then added to the Dreams & Nightmares Case, released on January 21, 2022.

What to check before buying

Before buying the ★ Shadow Daggers | Autotronic, check the following:

• pattern: all copies carry the same pattern;


• float: in this wear it is a long band, 0.15 to 0.38, so comparing several listings pays off;


• applied name: a name tag is possible on the push daggers, but there is no room for stickers;


• version: a StatTrak pair is listed as a separate item.
