Нож-бабочка | ★ Vanilla

Origin Story

The Butterfly Knife | ★ (Vanilla) was introduced with Operation Breakout on July 1, 2014, as the unpainted base model for the new Butterfly Knife type.

Its neutral, all-metal appearance allows it to pair well with almost any inventory, appealing to collectors who prefer metallic finishes over painted ones. The Butterfly Knife | ★ (Vanilla) remains a highly desired knife type in trading communities due to its prestige as an original operation-era item and its overall popularity.
