Shadow Daggers | Scorched

Origin Story

The Shadow Daggers | Scorched were introduced on September 17, 2015, as part of the Shadow Boxing update and are found within the Shadow Case. This knife skin features a spray-painted finish with a sun-dappled, scorched pattern, as described in its in-game description. Its muted dark brown, black, and grey colors give it a burnt, camouflage-like appearance. Within the Shadow Daggers family, this skin is generally considered a budget-friendly option for players seeking to own a knife.

Drop Chance

Shadow Daggers | Scorched 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 0.06 to 0.8. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available in FN, MW, FT, WW, BS.

• Factory New (No Recent Price): The dark brown, black, and grey scorched pattern appears intact with strong burnt patches and minimal visible scratches on the blades and handles.
• Minimal Wear ($83.31): Only very small micro-scratches or faint lightening appear on the most exposed blade edges, making it almost identical to Factory New in normal gameplay.
• Field-Tested ($60.74): Noticeable but moderate wear becomes visible on blade edges and tips, with more of the underlying lighter metal starting to show through the dark pattern.
• Well-Worn ($76.53): Significant chipping and fading occur along the blades, causing the scorched pattern to appear patchy and the finish to look noticeably washed out.
• Battle-Scarred ($59.07): Extensive wear with large areas of exposed metal and a heavily faded scorched pattern results in a very worn, almost raw-metal look with traces of dark spots.

Model

Scorched uses the legacy Shadow Daggers model, introduced with Shadow Boxing on September 17, 2015. The inspect animation and third-person appearance match the original CS:GO version.

Sticker Compatibility

Shadow Daggers do not support stickers, meaning there are no sticker slots or sticker-based crafts for the Shadow Daggers | Scorched. This absence of sticker compatibility means buyers often focus on pairing the knife with complementary weapon skins and gloves. Dark or earth-toned gloves and weapons, particularly those with other Scorched or camouflage finishes, are frequently chosen to maintain a consistent low-visibility aesthetic.
