Nomad Knife | Scorched

Origin Story

The Nomad Knife | Scorched was released on November 19, 2019, as part of the Operation Shattered Web update. The flavor text, "The Phoenix is not a symbol of destruction... it's a symbol of rebirth - Valeria Jenner, Revolutionary," adds a layer of thematic depth to the knife's design. This skin features a Spray-Paint finish style.

Drop Chance

Nomad 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: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available in FN, MW, FT, WW, BS.

• Factory New ($289.53): The sun-dappled spray-painted pattern is fully intact and vibrant.
• Minimal Wear ($165.26): Minor wear begins to appear on the edges of the knife, with the spray-paint largely preserved.
• Field-Tested ($130.48): Noticeable wear on the handle and blade edges, where the "scorched" pattern shows some fading.
• Well-Worn ($134.98): Significant paint loss is visible across the blade and handle, revealing more of the underlying surface.
• Battle-Scarred ($136.42): The spray-painted finish is heavily degraded, with large areas worn away, giving the knife a very weathered appearance.

Model

Scorched uses the legacy Nomad Knife model, introduced with Operation Shattered Web on November 19, 2019. The inspect animation and third-person appearance match the original CS:GO version.
