Паракорд-нож | Патина

Origin Story

The Paracord Knife | Stained was released on November 19, 2019, as part of the Operation Shattered Web update. This skin features a Patina finish, which creates its appearance through chemical staining rather than layered paint. The in-game description notes that the surface has a forced patina from lemon and mustard dripped onto it. Its flavor text, "If you think it's messy now, wait until you see it under a blacklight," suggests a distinct and potentially unusual visual character. The finish results in a distressed surface with muted metallic tones.

Paracord Knife | Stained is a knife-tier skin, so standard Valve rarity odds don't apply. Knives drop at a combined rate of approximately 0.26% from supported cases before accounting for which knife type and finish you get. Valve doesn't publish individual knife or phase probabilities.
