Talon Knife (Fade) (Minimal Wear)

Covert StatTrak +1.8% · 6 d-6.9% · 27 d

A Talon Knife dressed in the classic Fade, made by airbrushing transparent paints in a gradient over a chrome base so the colors bleed into one another. The mirror underlayer pushes the gradient brighter, and the ivory handle and saw-tooth ridges keep the knife recognizable underneath.

Talon Knife (Fade): design, wear and market

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.
