Falchion Knife | Blue Steel

Origin Story

The Falchion Knife | Blue Steel was introduced on May 26, 2015, as part of the Operation Bloodhound update. Its in-game description notes that it "has been cold blued," referring to a chemical process that darkens and protects steel. This Patina finish style gives the blade a distinct, chemically treated metallic appearance. The flavor text, "This is the malbec of weapon design - Booth, Arms Dealer," suggests a refined and robust quality.

Falchion Knife | Blue Steel 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.
