Gut Knife | Safari Mesh

The Gut Knife | Safari Mesh is a CS2 knife skin designed to deliver a rugged, outdoor-inspired look. Like many popular knife finishes, it became widely recognized through CS:GO/CS2 case ecosystems and has since remained a go-to pick for players who prefer bold, high-contrast knife patterns over simple solid finishes. The design is associated with the Safari Mesh finish style, giving the knife a distinctive texture-like appearance.

As a Covert rarity skin, the Gut Knife | Safari Mesh is considered relatively uncommon compared to lower-tier weapon skins. While exact drop rates are not publicly guaranteed for every container and vary by case/season mechanics, Covert items are generally much harder to obtain than common and restricted skins. Its rarity status makes it a sought-after option for collectors aiming for premium knife visuals.

This skin comes in multiple wear conditions, covering a broad range of appearances based on float value: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, and Battle-Scarred (float range 0.06 – 0.8).

A Souvenir version is not available for this particular skin, and it’s not listed as found in any specific collection group.

Visually, the Safari Mesh finish features an earthy, camo-like mesh pattern that reads as textured and weathered from different angles. The paint index (72) corresponds to a specific placement within the skin’s artwork set, which can make pattern appearance vary subtly between wear states. Overall, it’s a knife finish that balances tactical aesthetics with an eye-catching, patterned blade look—an important reason it stays popular among players who want knives that stand out without being overly flashy.
