Karambit | Autotronic

Origin Story

The Karambit | Autotronic was introduced to CS2 on June 16, 2016, as part of the Gamma Exposure update and the Gamma Case collection. This high-end knife is distinguished by its red anodized blade and steel mesh, which contribute to its modern, industrial appearance. It is consistently regarded as a top-tier luxury item among collectors and high-budget players. The skin is frequently paired with other Autotronic items to create cohesive red and black loadouts.

Drop Chance

Karambit | Autotronic 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 0.85. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred. StatTrak is available in FN, MW, FT, WW, BS.

• Factory New ($1,750.09): The red anodized blade surfaces are fully saturated and uniform, with the steel mesh and metallic elements appearing clean and sharply defined.
• Minimal Wear (No Recent Price): The overall appearance remains very close to Factory New, with strong red color and clean metallic meshes, though small scuffs may begin to appear on high-contact blade edges.
• Field-Tested ($1,121.67): Noticeable fading and chipping of the red anodized paint occurs along the outer curve and tip, and the metal parts look slightly duller.
• Well-Worn ($981.20): The red paint appears substantially chipped and desaturated, especially along high-contact edges, with larger worn patches exposing more metal underneath.
• Battle-Scarred ($929.90): Red anodized areas are heavily worn with extensive chipping, patchiness, and dull color, causing large sections to appear mostly metallic with only traces of the original red.

Model

Autotronic uses the legacy Karambit model, introduced with Gamma Exposure on June 16, 2016. The inspect animation and third-person appearance match the original CS:GO version.

Visual Theme

Gunsmith: It has been anodized red and uses steel mesh to lighten the weight. This is reflected in the dominant bright red, silver, and dark components of the design. In first-person view, the most visible elements are the red anodized blade surfaces and accents, particularly on the edge and spine, alongside the steel frame and mesh details near the handle. The Autotronic line is consistently associated with futuristic and tech-themed red-accented loadouts.

Sticker Compatibility

As a knife, the Karambit | Autotronic does not have sticker slots; its compatibility refers to how it pairs with stickered weapons in a loadout. Its red, black, and metallic palette complements red and black stickers, as well as those with a tech or futuristic theme, aligning with its industrial aesthetic. The most relevant compatibility concern for this knife is coordinating primary weapons with matching red and black stickered designs.
