★ Stiletto Knife

The ★ Stiletto Knife carries a historically contentious reputation. Valve describes it as an Italian-style switchblade whose spring-loaded mechanism allows near-instant deployment with a single press of the release catch. Such mechanisms have faced legal regulation in many jurisdictions. The knife is Covert rarity and appears across the Horizon Case, Danger Zone Case, Prisma Case, and Prisma 2 Case. StatTrak versions are available. Its slim, elongated blade profile is a defining characteristic visible in both idle and inspect animations.
