Skin description

★ Butterfly Knife | Freehand is a premium balisong skin added to CS2 on September 21, 2021 alongside Operation Riptide, and it can be unboxed from the Dreams & Nightmares Case. This Butterfly Knife has been painted in an “Anodized Multicolored” style, with the Freehand finish: deep black and rich purple tones form the base, then the blade is detailed with bright, hand-drawn doodles that look like metallic marker sketches. The signature butterfly-knife silhouette makes the pattern pop during flips and inspect animations, while the dark handles keep the focus on the artwork. In Factory New condition, the surface is pristine: no noticeable scuffs on the cutting edge, no scratched flats, and no dull patches, so the glossy sheen and crisp linework stay clean, vibrant, and collector-ready.
