Skeleton Knife | Boreal Forest

Origin Story

The Skeleton Knife | Boreal Forest was released on November 19, 2019, as part of the Operation Shattered Web update. This knife features a forest camouflage hydrographic, giving it a rugged, tactical appearance. Its design evokes the dangers of the wilderness, as suggested by its flavor text: "The woods can be a dangerous place... never travel alone."
