The stiletto in this finish sits in the Horizon Case and the Danger Zone Case. There are five wears, and the float of the stiletto runs from 0.06 to 0.80. This wear of the ★ Stiletto Knife | Boreal Forest is allotted 0.15 to 0.38.

What the ★ Stiletto Knife | Boreal Forest looks like in Field-Tested

The stiletto is long and thin, with a needle point. The handle scales are pale sand-beige, and patches of olive, brown and bright green are scattered over them and over the base of the blade. The butt ends of the handle carry lime and brown camouflage. At the base of the blade sits a round latch head with two lugs. By Valve's description, the forest camouflage was carried onto the knife with hydrographic film.

Typical for Field-Tested are marks on the thin point and on the edge. Wear is fixed at the drop. The 0.15 to 0.38 band leaves a choice: nearer 0.15 the copies are cleaner.

Where the ★ Stiletto Knife | Boreal Forest came from

Valve calls the stiletto an Italian spring knife, whose blade springs out almost instantly at the press of a button. Boreal Forest is found in the Horizon Case and the Danger Zone Case.

What to check before buying

• applied name: a name tag is allowed on the stiletto and stays on it after purchase;


• edition: the StatTrak™ stiletto is listed separately from the regular one.

The artwork on this stiletto repeats from one listing to the next without change.

Getting the ★ Stiletto Knife | Boreal Forest

The knife drops from the Horizon Case and the Danger Zone Case, and the wear on opening is random. The contract offers another path: five Covert skins from one collection are folded into one rare special item, but the stiletto and finish cannot be ordered in it. A particular stiletto is bought as a ready-made listing.

Is there a StatTrak version

A StatTrak™ version of the ★ Stiletto Knife | Boreal Forest exists in the game.

Who this wear suits

Field-Tested is worth buying for this stiletto for these reasons:

• you want a forest-camouflage stiletto, and Minimal Wear costs an eighth more;


• your CS2 loadout leans on green and khaki, and the sandy handle scales echo the camouflage background;


• float matters more than the label: at 0.15 the point is thinner and cleaner than at 0.38.
