Navaja Knife | Stained

Origin Story

The Navaja Knife | Stained, released on August 3, 2018, as part of the A New Horizon update, features a blade given a forced patina. Its in-game description notes that lemon and mustard were dripped onto the surface to create its unique discoloration. This process results in a muted, worn-metal look with irregular staining rather than a uniform color. The finish presents a subtle palette of silver-gray and brownish tones, emphasizing the blade's aged appearance.

Drop Chance

Navaja Knife | Stained 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.

• Well-Worn ($63.25): The patina appears noticeably more faded or smoothed out, with larger areas of the blade looking like flat, darker metal and less visible mottling.
• Battle-Scarred ($64.00): The blade and handle show heavy dulling, and the patina becomes very muted, with large sections appearing almost like plain dark steel.

Visual Theme

Patina: It has been given a forced patina using lemon and mustard dripped onto the surface. This results in a mottled, stained metal surface with irregular discoloration, dominated by muted silver/gray and brownish tones. In first-person, the blade’s stained steel surface is the most visible element. Stained finishes on other knives are often likened to aged, dirty, or industrial metal.

Sticker Compatibility

The muted silver, gray, and brown patina tones of the Navaja Knife | Stained pair well with monochrome, gold, bronze, or earth-toned stickers. Any applied stickers would be on the handle, as the blade does not support them, and visibility is minimal in first-person views.
