How we picked
- The finish is called exactly Fade. Marble Fade, Amber Fade and Acid Fade are different finishes and are left out.
- Guns first, then gloves, then knives.
- Guns follow the release date of their collection or case. Knives follow the case in which that knife first came with Fade; knives from one case sit together.
Highlights
- Glock-18 | Fade is the oldest gun here, a Restricted skin from The Assault Collection.
- MAC-10 | Fade is the only Mil-Spec skin in the selection.
- R8 Revolver | Fade and MP7 | Fade break the wear rule: the R8 reaches Well‑Worn and the MP7 reaches Field‑Tested.
- Specialist Gloves | Fade are the only gloves with this finish; their float sits between 0.06 and 0.8.
- Karambit | Fade is one of five knives that already had Fade in the CS:GO Weapon Case. Gloves to match it are in the knife and glove pairs.
- Kukri Knife | Fade is the newest knife here, from the Kilowatt Case.
Before you choose
Apart from the R8, MP7 and gloves, every skin here stays between 0 and 0.08 in float, which leaves just the two cleanest exteriors. Beyond wear, the pattern changes the look: it decides which stretch of the colour blend lands on the item. The patterns guide covers this in detail.
