Knives in CS2 are vital weapons available to both sides, CTs and Ts. So, having a knife skin has always been a distinctive sign associated with success, skill, wealth and all other benefits of mankind. A knife in csgo is a sign of high class. And even though cheap knives cost around $100 (which is a lot, compared to skins to almost every other weapon in the game), the most expensive ones with a rare float can be valued at several thousand. By the way, all types of knives in CS2 have real-life analogues. CS.MONEY Blog has all CS2 knives listed in this article. Moreover, we add some interesting facts about them and talk CS2 knife prices.

Bowie Knife: Cheap and cool CS2 knife
CS:GO Bowie Knife was first added to the game in 2016, along with the Wildfire Case and other knives. And although the first real-life Bowie Knife was created back in the 19th century, its CS:GO version is based on the modern Aitor Oso Negro, the Spanish military intelligence knife, which translates as Black Bear. Funnily enough, years later, Valve released the Ursus Knife, which is basically also the Bear Knife. You can buy a cheap Bowie Knife for less than a hundred dollars (Rust Coat, Safari Mesh, Scorched, Urban Masked, and Borean Forest are pretty good options). But the most expensive Bowie knife, Doppler Saphire + StatTrak, will cost around a couple thousand. Trivia time: David Bowie, a world-famous musician, took his last name from this particular knife.
Shadow Daggers: Paired Knives in CS2
Shadow Daggers CS2 knife stands out from the list of all knives in CS2 precisely because… there are two of them, one in each hand! And also, their shape resembles poking brass knuckles rather than simple blades. Despite this, Shadow Daggers are one of the cheapest CS2 knives: you can buy them for around $90 and not more than one hundred. They were added to the game in 2015. Black Water, Damascus Steel and Black Laminate look amazing for ~$100 knives, so you might consider them. By the way, you can buy shadow daggers in good condition on our website for only $110!
Falchion Knife: Popular folding knife
Falchion Knife was added to CS2 in 2015. It immediately gained popularity and is still one of the most wanted knives in the game. Buying a Falchion knife can be quite costly since it’s not the cheapest CS2 knife. Its lowest prices on the market start from $140, even for Safari Mesh, Urban Masked and Rust Coat. Falchion knife has a unique feature of two viewing animations: the regular one and the rare one where the player’s hands try to balance the knife vertically.
Butterfly Knife: Best CS2 Knife of all?
The CS2 skin market turned upside down when Valve released Butterfly Knife in 2014. Since then, it has been one of the most popular knife skins in the game. Butterfly Knife is very expensive, starting prices are at least $700, and the most expensive one can exceed $15,000! It’s like buying a car! By the way, Butterfly Knife has two drawing animations, though none of them is ultra-rare. Moreover, BF knife also has three inspecting animations! Most CS players want to have one, and skin collectors try to find the rarest floats for expensive patterns. So, this one is truly a legendary knife skin!
Huntsman Knife: Great and modern CS2 knife
Modern, stylish and multifunctional beast. You can buy a Huntsman Knife in CS2 for about $150 with quite a good Ubran Masked pattern or pay a little more for a beautiful and shiny Freehand. This knife was first added to the game in May 2014. Huntsman Knife’s design is based on a popular MTECH USA XTREME MX-8054 knife.
M9 Bayonet: One of the BEST CS2 knives ever
Another very expensive yet exceptionally beautiful knife. You can buy an M9 Bayonet in CS2 for at least $550. Its maximum prices reach — like with the Butterfly Knife matter — tens of thousands of dollars. This is one of the first knives in CS2, which appeared in 2013 along with The Arms Deal update (this case included the first five knife skins in the game). M9 Bayonet is based on one of Smith & Wesson’s knives, which you might have heard about for their well-known firearms.
Bayonet: cheaper than M9 but still decent
If you try to compare Bayonet vs M9 Bayonet and ask what are the differences between Bayonet and M9, here’s the explanation. The ‘M9’ version has serrated parts and is based on a modern knife, while the classic Bayonet was inspired by a 1993 knife. However, the regular Bayonet costs $150 less than M9. In addition, this knife has a very epic and minimalistic draw animation, which wins the hearts of many CS2 players. Also, one of the first five knives in CS2, along with the M9.
Flip Knife: expensive but good-looking knife
You can buy a Flip Knife in CS2 for at least $200, but it’s better, of course, to choose more expensive options, since the lowest float of this skin looks… not that attractive. Flip Knife is another OG knife released in 2013, but the fun fact here is that dropping one from a case is very difficult. Flip Knife‘s chances to drop are much lower than among other knives, hence the high price. For $270, you can find a nice Flip Knife Blue Steel.
Gut Knife: cheap and extraordinary CS2 knife
Let’s switch back to cheap and affordable CS2 knives. Gut Knife costs just over $110, but its design is… extravagant. This is the cheapest knife from the 2013 Arms Deal update. Trivia time: Gut Knife has CSGO 2013 carved on its side. We advise you to take a closer look at Night and Freehand patterns (from $150) and Black Laminate (from $300).
Karambit: most popular CS2 knife?
Karambit, also known as the Tiger’s Claw is a very popular CS2 knife skin. Karambit levels or even surpasses Butterfly Knife. Ever since it has been released, Karambit skyrocketed in popularity, and therefore, in price. You can buy cheap Karambit for around $700. Surely, this is a legendary and very stylish knife, which has decent animations so you will want to stab your enemies even more. This is the last of the five original knife CS2 skins from 2013.

Talon Knife: a good curved CS2 knife
What is the difference between Talon Knife and Karambit Knife? Talon Knife is longer and smarter, and it results in lesser aggressiveness in style, and, accordingly, in price. And although the cheapest Talon Knife can be bought for $450, its expensive options can also reach tens of thousands. By the way, Talon Knife was added to CS2 in 2018.

Stiletto Knife: mafia knife in CS2
You can buy this stylish bandit knife for $300. Stiletto is an Italian switchblade, it’s gorgeous and resembles the mafia vibe. Just like Talon, Stiletto Knife was added to the game in 2018. It has a budget knife skin Night Stripe and a slightly more expensive Stained skin, which both look incredibly great for their price. It is not very popular, so the high price is likely based on its original design than the rarity of the drop.
Navaja Knife: fighting knife
Another 2018 CS2 knife. Navaja is also a Spanish knife, but it looks more like a razor blade and it’s no less deadly. Navaja Knife was used by street combatants in illegal fights to the death. Moreover, such knives were passed down from generation to generation in Spanish families. Stained and Night Stripe in good condition are available for about $100. Navaja is a great budget and cheap CS2 knife in 2024.
Ursus Knife: minimalistic CS2 knife
Well Worn Ursus Knife Night Stripe looks decent and only costs a little less than $200. Ursus is one of the best and cheap csgo knives. This ‘Bear’ knife was added to the game in 2018, but it is not very popular among the players, and therefore its price is not so high compared to other new knife skins.
Survival Knife: Operation Shattered Web knife
The first of Operation Shattered Web knives; released in 2019. Survival Knife looks very detailed and fits just about every pattern imaginable. Its Safari Mesh only costs about $180 and looks very pleasing. In addition, Survival Knife has great budget skins: we recommend Blue Steel, which is simply gorgeous. Of course, SK looks best with Crimson Web.
Skeleton Knife: throwing knife in CS2
Skeleton Knife is actually a throwing knife, it wasn’t made for close combat. But everything is a little different in CS2, isn’t it? Skeleton Knife in CS2 is slightly larger than its real-life source. In addition, Skeleton Knife has two different animations with a 50% chance to execute when pulled and a very small chance for an ultra-rare animation when inspected. You can buy Skeleton Knife for $450, but we recommend the fashionable Stained for $650.
Paracord Knife: great and shiny CS2 knife
You can buy Paracord Knife cheap, starting from $170. This is a relatively low price for a knife released in 2019, but its design and patterning speak for themselves. Night Stripe is a good budget option.
Nomad Knife: stylish and awesome cheap knife
Nomad Knife looks great with the Fade pattern, but it also costs around a thousand dollars. Cheap Nomad Knife skin is about $220. Interestingly, the original Strider B46 knife has a wooden handle, but in CS2 it was replaced with carbon fibre. In addition, Nomad Knife has a small chance for a rare pull animation where the player gets hurt while trying to take the knife out. Last skin from 2019!
