Steam Marketplace Analytics
Fade percentage
Fade skins show a gradient that runs across the weapon. The paint seed controls how far the gradient travels, expressed as a fade percentage. A higher percentage means the full colour spread is visible, which collectors pay more for.
Full 100% Fades, and on some knives "full fade" with a specific colour order, sit at the top of the range. The percentage is not in the item name, so it is read from the seed via a fade calculator before buying.

Float & wear: how it works
Float is a hidden 0–1 value generated when a skin drops. It sets how worn the skin looks and which exterior name it gets. A lower float looks cleaner and usually costs more, even within the same exterior.
This skin can roll float 0.00 to 0.08, so only the highlighted exteriors exist for it.
| Exterior | Float range |
|---|---|
| Factory New | 0.00 – 0.07 |
| Minimal Wear | 0.07 – 0.15 |
| Field-Tested | 0.15 – 0.38 |
| Well-Worn | 0.38 – 0.45 |
| Battle-Scarred | 0.45 – 1.00 |
The Classic Knife is a callback to the original Counter-Strike blade, here given the Fade treatment: transparent paints airbrushed over a chrome base so colors melt from one into the next. The metallic underlayer lets the gradient glow, shifting hue across the blade as it catches light. A clean, color-graded finish on a knife built around nostalgia.
