Shadow Daggers | Ultraviolet

Shadow Daggers | Ultraviolet is a Counter-Strike 2 weapon skin built on the iconic Shadow Daggers model. The “Ultraviolet” finish is part of the game’s broader collection of vivid, high-contrast looks designed to stand out in motion. As a CS2-ready variant, it uses the same distinctive dagger silhouette while applying the ultraviolet-inspired color direction for a sharp, modern aesthetic.

This skin is classified as Covert rarity, the second-highest tier in CS2, which generally indicates a lower overall availability compared to common or restricted items. While exact drop chances are not publicly confirmed for individual skins, Covert items are typically far less common than lower tiers. If you’re pursuing specific finishes like Ultraviolet, it’s wise to expect rarity-driven scarcity rather than frequent pulls.

Shadow Daggers | Ultraviolet is available in multiple wear states: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, and Battle-Scarred. You can also choose a version with StatTrak functionality, as StatTrak is available for this skin. Souvenir is not available, and the skin is not listed as being found in any dedicated collections (it is instead tied to specific cases/containers).

Visually, the Ultraviolet finish emphasizes deep purples and bright violet tones that create a bold “neon” look on the dagger blades and handles. With its consistent ultraviolet paint direction (including paint index 98), the skin delivers a clean, high-impact appearance that tends to look particularly striking against a variety of player agents and weapon skins.

To obtain Shadow Daggers | Ultraviolet, check the Spectrum Case and Spectrum 2 Case, where the skin can appear as a potential case drop. Because it’s a Covert-grade item, it’s commonly viewed as a desirable centerpiece for players who want a premium melee skin with a vivid, contemporary color theme.

In the CS2 community, Shadow Daggers skins are popular due to their fast, recognizable animation and their strong visual presence in first-person view. The Ultraviolet finish, in particular, is often appreciated for its vibrant purple character and the way it complements other colorful loadouts—making it a frequent target for players who want both style and rarity in their melee slot.
