The Black Laminate Family

Similar Shadow Daggers Skins

Origin Story

The Shadow Daggers | Black Laminate emerged on September 22, 2021, as part of the Riptide Knife set introduced with Operation Riptide. This knife features stonewashed blades paired with black laminate handles, creating a dark grey and black profile. Its visual identity centers on a muted, low-key aesthetic, appealing to players who prefer understated designs over flashy patterns. The overall impression is one of rugged utility, with the dual blade shapes and their textured metal surfaces being the most prominent visual elements during gameplay.

Drop Chance

Shadow Daggers | Black Laminate 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.

Sticker Compatibility

Shadow Daggers do not support stickers, making sticker compatibility inapplicable for this item. There are no sticker slot positions or famous sticker crafts associated with this knife. However, general knife aesthetic discussions suggest that black, grey, white, and muted-color loadouts visually complement Black Laminate knives, focusing on overall inventory theming rather than individual weapon stickers.
