Gut Knife | Tiger Tooth

Origin Story

The Gut Knife | Tiger Tooth was introduced on January 8, 2015, as part of the Full Spectrum update, accompanying the original Chroma Case line. Its blade features an anodized orange finish, hand-etched with a distinctive black tiger stripe pattern. This design creates a flashy gold appearance that has broad appeal among players. While the Gut Knife model itself has a divisive silhouette, the Tiger Tooth finish is generally considered a clean-looking and popular option within the knife category.

Drop Chance

Gut Knife | Tiger Tooth 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 (No Recent Price): The gold/orange base coat and black tiger stripes are at maximum vibrancy, appearing clean and glossy across the blade.
