Appearance history
The Flip Knife | Case Hardened (Flip CH) made its debut within the virtual armory of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive on the 14th of August, 2013, as part of the much-anticipated 'The Arms Deal' update. This particular skin has been discovered in 11 distinct weapon cases that spanned the years 2013 to 2015.
Pattern description
Adorning the sturdy blade of the Flip CH are hues of azure, amethyst, and amber, giving it a distinct and striking appearance. The grip, however, remains devoid of coloration.
Effect of float
The Flip CH skin proffers a spectrum of conditions, boasting an infinite Float Value. Even when subjected to the rigors of battle, the blade resists the manifestation of wear such as nicks and scuffs, maintaining its pristine condition. As the Float Value approaches its zenith, a patina envelops the blade, casting it in a somber, more subdued light.
Pattern difference
Intricacies of the pattern index influence the stain's placement, hue, and contour. Among these, the 'Blue Gem' variant, characterized by a preponderance of unblemished azure on the play side, is lauded as the most elusive and commands the highest price. Patterns with an azure presence ranging from 50% to 70% on the play side are also scarce. Conversely, the most prevalent and economically priced patterns feature a yellow blade or a blade with azure speckles, occupying no more than 30% of the blade's surface.
Skin Features
The Flip Knife | Case Hardened boasts the coveted Covert quality. Additionally, it is part of the esteemed 'Case Hardened' collection and offers the option for a StatTrak counter.
Skin popularity
