All Counter Strike 2 Knives And Prices In November 2023

There are some pretty awesome weapons in Counter-Strike 2 and players simply can’t get enough. Among the arsenal of weapons available for players to purchase, knives are some of the most desirable. Just like guns in the game, even knives come in various styles and types. Players are able to trade their boring blades for some interesting and even fashionable ones. Below we’ll be listing down some of the best knives in Counter-Strike 2. Along with that, we’ll also list down their prices so that you will be able to see which ones you can get your hands on.

There are a total of nineteen knife types that are available in Counter-Strike 2, with each one having its own set of unique designs, skins, and patterns. This means the choices for players are countless with some of the ones on the list being on the higher price point. However, even the so-called ‘affordable knives’ also can be worth way more if they come with a certain unique or rare pattern on them. An example of this would be the ‘Blue Gems’ pattern. If a knife comes with the rare ‘Blue Gems’ pattern on it, then you can expect it to cost thousands of dollars. Some of the knives have an insane price tag on them and can be sold upwards of $10,000. The most expensive knife in Counter-Strike 2 is valued at over $1.5 million.

While most of the players may never have that kind of money to splurge on CS2 knives, that won’t be a problem as we’ll be looking at the ones we can find on the Steam Market or in reputable third-party websites. The price of the knives will depend on the wear, pattern, and skin. It is also important to note that the prices of the knives are bound to fluctuate, so make sure you double-check the price before buying one.

Butterfly Knife – Most Expensive CS2 Knife

Going through the list, it’s easy to see that it’s the Butterfly Knife that takes the spot for the most expensive knives in CS2. The knife was first added to the game on 1^st July 2014, and since then has been one of the most sought-after knives in the game. While the moderately expensive version of the knife is worth $500, the most expensive Butterfly Knife can reach a price point of an astounding $20,000. This price point is typically seen for rare versions of the knife like the Emerald or Sapphire Butterfly Knife. Recently, sales for the Butterfly Knife have touched and gone beyond the $25,000 mark.

Looking at the knife, players will notice that it doesn’t have a very large blade-like some of the other more hardy types. However, its price point mainly comes from all the interesting animations of the knife. When drawing out the Butterfly Knife in the game, players can see their in-game characters perform some cool moves or tricks with the knife. Players would be able to see their characters perform some flawless knife tricks like a professional.

But if you’re talking about the most expensive knife in the entire world of Counter-Strike, then that title goes to the Karambit, specifically the 387 ‘Blue Gem’ Karambit in its Factory New condition. It has a value of a whopping $1.5 million as there is only one of it in existence. Interestingly, its current owner turned down the mega offer and refused to sell the knife.

Navaja Knife – Cheapest CS2 Knife

If you want to know which is the cheapest knife in CS2, then it’s the Navaja Knife. The knife was added to the game on 3^rd August 2018 and is among the newer knives in the game. The knife has a smaller blade compared to the rest of its counterparts and also has very limited animations. Players often describe it as looking like a butter knife or even a letter opener. By looks alone, it doesn’t look like the knife is capable of inflicting a major amount of damage. The cheapest Navaja knives are worth around $100.

Another knife that makes this list is the Shadow Daggers which cost somewhere around $110. The Shadow Daggers are a set of two knives that the in-game character can hold in each hand. Ideally, this could be a desirable knife to have, however, just like the Navaja Knife, the Shadow Daggers are not the most intimidating knives in the game. This is why, it’s not the most popular among players and has somewhat of a negative reputation as well.

Best CS2 Knife to Purchase

For those of you who are looking to purchase the perfect knife for your CS2 character but are not sure which one to pick, here are some things to consider:

Cost and Investment

Buy what you can afford. If you really like a certain knife and want it in your inventory but the price is to much then, we suggest you hold off your purchase until you can save up enough money to do so. Every item you buy is like an investment, so make sure that you’re not purchasing on a whim and go for the ones that will give you the best value for your money. Some knives have lost their high value in the past, however, with the release of CS2, every knife in the game has once again soared in their value.

Animations

Don’t skip checking out the animations on a knife before you purchase them. This is important as every time you pull out the knife, these animations will play out. So, it’s great if you have one with really good animations. There are a lot of YouTube videos that have these knife animations so check them out!

Wear, Skin, Pattern

Every knife in CS2 comes with a variety of skins. Some of these skins have cool designs with lots of colors, while some designs are more muted and minimalistic. However, it’s the bright and colorful ones that tend to cost more. While you could get the standard or ‘Vanilla’ versions of the knives, beware, as it doesn’t mean that they are cheap. 

Another aspect to pay attention to is the wear level of the knife. A ‘Factory New’ knife will look brand new and almost flawless, while a ‘Battle Scarred’ one will look worn and damaged. These knife wear level further impacts their value and price.

Patterns are some of the most important things to look out for in CS2 knives. Each knife skin has about 1000 patterns and they can look extremely different from the other. One with a rare pattern is bound to cost a lot as well.

Who knew CS2 knives could be so interesting and valuable? As the game continues to gain even more popularity, and potentially release newer knives, the prices could also increase. However, for players who really want to get into collecting CS2 knives, this is a great starting point. Hope you found this article helpful, and stay tuned for more.
