Origin Story
The Paracord Knife | Fade, introduced in November 2019 with Operation Shattered Web, presents a vibrant gradient across its blade, airbrushed with transparent paints over a chrome base coat. While generally viewed as a more accessible entry point into the Fade knife family, its visual appeal lies in the dynamic color balance of its blade. The knife's flavor text, "This isn't just a weapon, it's a conversation piece - Imogen, Arms Dealer In Training," suggests its distinctive appearance is intended to spark interest.
Drop Chance
Paracord Knife | Fade 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 to 0.08. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear. StatTrak is available in FN, MW. Factory New ($229.23): The transparent yellow, orange, pink, and purple paints are at their most vibrant, blending smoothly over the chrome base of the blade. Minimal Wear ($300.00): The Fade gradient remains intact and clean, with only minor softening of the metallic sheen or slight edge darkening visible on close inspection.
Model
Fade uses the legacy Paracord Knife model, introduced with Operation Shattered Web on November 19, 2019. The inspect animation and third-person appearance match the original CS:GO version.
