Knife skins are some of the most expensive skins in the game, mainly due to their rarity and great visuals. Many knife skins also significantly change the attack animation and are hard to miss in a match, which just adds to their price.
A single knife skin in Counter Strike can easily break the $1000 barrier. Because of this, knife trading is a big thing in CS2 and CS:GO, and all Steam users want to get their hands on their own knife. And while there are many beautiful and rare knife skins in CS2, not many of them can compare to the Blue Gem Karambit knife.
Blue Gem Karambit skins are some of the rarest in the game, particularly because they are a rare variation of an already rare skin. The astronomical price of this expensive skin has reached over $1.5 million, highlighting its high demand and increasing value within the game’s market. If you feel like adding a couple blue gems to your CS2 inventory, here’s everything you need to know.
What Is The Blue Gem Karambit Skin?
‘Blue Gem’ is the name that the Counter Strike community has unofficially given the various different finishes of the Case Hardened Karambit skin. Case hardened skins and hardened skins are highly sought after due to their unique patterns and colors. In CS2 two skins with the same name don’t exactly look alike. That’s because every skin can come in one of the many different blue gem seed patterns and a different float value.
Karambit Case Hardened is dominated by two colors: gold and blue. Different seed patterns have different colors on the blade. The more blue the blade is, the more expensive your Karambit will be.
Karambits with blue gem patterns are some of the best rare CS2 skins in the game and are often worth a lot of money. Some of the rarest Blue Gem patterns, such as the one held by a famous chinese collector, are in fact so rare that they don’t even have a price fixed on them. A specific pattern can be worth a small fortune, however even just a visible side of gold on the blue blade can significantly reduce its price.
Players interested in knives and rare patterns of Karambit will always look for the bluest blade possible, and getting one like it can make you rich. The play side of the Karambit, featuring distinct color patterns, is crucial in determining the rarity and value of these case-hardened skins. Many collectors are very meticulous about their rare Karambits, and often want to collect skins with particular patterns.
Blue Gem Karambit Price
The individual price of every Blue Gem knife greatly varies between different patterns and looks. More regular Karambit Case Hardened skins can cost just a couple of hundred dollars, but the real rare picks can cost insane amounts of money, with each of the more expensive Blue Gems worth a literal fortune. For example, the particularly rare Blue Gem Karambit 387 can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, and many collectors use that particular Karambit skin as a form of investment.
Not every Karambit Case Hardened is a Blue Gem knife, so if you enjoy the patina-colored aesthetics, you can land a Karambit skin of your own for as little as $300.
What Are The Karambit Blue Gem Patterns?
There are many different pattern variations of the Blue Gem pattern that you can get in CS2. Minimal wear is a category of float values indicating good condition for items like the Karambit Case Hardened blue gem, noting that while it is valuable, it is not as pristine as the Factory New versions. The pattern matters much more than the skin wear level, since even Field Tested Blue Gem Karambits are worth a lot of money, much more than many of the rarest Factory New skins you can get.
