Karambit | Slaughter (Minimal Wear)
With its curved blade mimicking a tiger's claw, the karambit was developed as part of the southeast Asian martial discipline of silat. The knife is typically used with a reverse grip, with the finger ring on the index finger. It has been painted in a zebra-stripe pattern with aluminum and chrome paints with various reflectivities, and has then been covered with a tomato red candy coat.

Description
Karambit | Slaughter is one of the most iconic blade finishes in the CS:GO/CS2 ecosystem, built on the popular Karambit model and the highly recognizable Slaughter pattern. The skin is part of the CS:GO “legacy” model lineup, meaning it carries the look and presentation established in CS:GO and remains a favorite among players who want a classic, high-impact knife style in Counter-Strike 2.
As a Covert rarity skin, Karambit | Slaughter is considered extremely desirable. While exact drop chances are not publicly guaranteed, Covert items are among the more difficult pulls compared to lower rarities. The listed float range is 0.01–0.26, which means it can appear in several quality grades, with better wear typically commanding more attention from collectors.
You can find Karambit | Slaughter in the following wears: Factory New, Minimal Wear, and Field-Tested. StatTrak availability: Yes, allowing owners to track kills with the knife. Souvenir availability: No. This combination—especially the presence of StatTrak—adds to the skin’s value for players who want both style and in-game progression.
Visually, the Slaughter finish is known for its aggressive, high-contrast patterning across the blade. With paint index 59 and the CS:GO (legacy) model, the skin’s look is defined by bold tonal variation that creates a dramatic “slashed” effect as the light hits different sections of the knife. The Karambit’s curved silhouette amplifies the finish, making this one of the most eye-catching knives when equipped in-game.
Karambit | Slaughter can be obtained from multiple CS:GO-era cases and containers, including: CS:GO Weapon Case, Operation Phoenix Weapon Case, Revolver Case, Operation Bravo Case, eSports 2014 Summer Case, Operation Vanguard Weapon Case, eSports 2013 Winter Case, eSports 2013 Case, Winter Offensive Weapon Case, CS:GO Weapon Case 2, and CS:GO Weapon Case 3. It also has no known collection listing, keeping it primarily case-driven for most players.
In the community, Karambit | Slaughter is widely regarded as a “must-have” high-tier knife due to its unmistakable finish and its long-standing popularity. Players often seek it for both gameplay presence and collector appeal, particularly when chasing the best wear grade within its 0.01–0.26 range.
