Нож Боуи | Патина

Origin Story

The Bowie Knife | Stained was introduced on February 18, 2016, as part of the Operation Wildfire update, expanding the range of available knife finishes. Its visual identity comes from a forced patina created by dripping lemon and mustard onto the blade, resulting in a muted silver and grey steel with darker, discolored patches. This finish is often considered a budget-friendly option for players seeking a neutral, metallic look for their Bowie knife. The broad blade face dominates the first-person view, showcasing the stained steel. While not a status symbol, its pragmatic appeal makes it a functional choice for many.

Bowie 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.
