Classic Knife | Scorched

Origin Story

The Classic Knife | Scorched, released on October 18, 2019, with the Cache and Release update, features a sun-dappled spray-painted pattern. This finish is characterized by muted black, brown, and tan tones, creating a smoky, charred aesthetic on the blade. Its visual identity is defined by irregular dark patches over a lighter base, giving it a utilitarian, military-inspired look. The Classic Knife | Scorched is often considered a pragmatic choice for players seeking to own a Classic Knife without the higher cost of more vibrant patterns.

Drop Chance

Classic Knife | Scorched 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.

Skin Condition

Float range 0.06 to 0.8. Exteriors: Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available in FN, MW, FT, WW, BS.

• Minimal Wear ($125.21): The sun-dappled camo pattern remains mostly intact with crisp dark scorch patches against the lighter base, showing only subtle edge thinning.
• Field-Tested ($120.35): Noticeable wear appears along edges, with some dark scorch patches becoming less solid and blending into exposed metal, and the overall finish dulling.
• Well-Worn ($136.41): Heavier edge wear is present, with significant portions of the blade's outline and tip showing bare metal, and the scorch pattern appearing more washed-out.
• Battle-Scarred ($114.51): Very heavy wear is evident, with much of the blade's edge, tip, and spine predominantly bare metal, and the remaining Scorched pattern appearing as isolated dark patches.

Model

Scorched uses the legacy Classic Knife model, introduced with Cache and Release on October 18, 2019. The inspect animation and third-person appearance match the original CS:GO version.
