Appearance history

Pattern description
Both the blade and guard of this exquisite knife are coated with a metallic varnish, over which a pattern of diaphanous, serpentine lines dance, reminiscent of smoke tendrils. Its palette is a symphony of azure hues, seamlessly blending to mimic the lustrous sheen of a sapphire, while the handle retains its original, unadorned state.
Effect of float
The Float Value for this skin oscillates between 0.00 and 0.08, ensuring its availability solely in the pristine Factory New and the scarcely less immaculate Minimal Wear conditions. When wear nudges towards its zenith, the knife betrays its use with discernible scars and wear, particularly along the spine and perforation, with minor marks also gracing the blade's various edges.
Pattern difference
The texture's manifestation upon the knife is at the mercy of the pattern index, yet this skin lacks any special or elusive pattern variants.
Skin Features
