Origin Story
The Sawed-Off | The Kraken, released on December 18, 2013, as part of the Winter Offensive update, features a hand-painted image of an octopus. Its flavor text, "It has been unleashed," reinforces the marine theme. This design centers on a kraken-style motif, giving the weapon a distinctive appearance.
Drop Chance
Sawed-Off | The Kraken is Covert, a Red-tier skin, the rarest standard drop grade. From the Winter Offensive Weapon Case: approximately 0.32% per opening (roughly 1 in 312). The 0.64% Covert tier rate is split across 2 Covert skins in the case. StatTrak versions drop at ~0.03% from the Winter Offensive Weapon Case (about 1 in 3,125). These per-skin odds assume equal weighting within tier — Valve publishes tier rates but doesn't formally confirm even distribution across skins in a tier.
Skin Condition
Float range 0 to 0.4. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn. StatTrak is available in FN, MW, FT, WW. Factory New ($111.29): The hand-painted octopus art is at its most intact and clean, presenting the marine theme clearly. Minimal Wear ($106.64): Only light surface wear is expected, with the octopus motif retaining most of its crispness. Field-Tested ($102.30): More visible wear appears on exposed areas, and the edges of the octopus artwork will begin to show signs of degradation. Well-Worn ($109.13): This tier exhibits the most visible wear, with pronounced degradation of the paint integrity across the skin.
Model
The Kraken uses the legacy Sawed-Off model, introduced with Winter Offensive on December 18, 2013. The inspect animation and third-person appearance match the original CS:GO version.
