The most expensive CS2 knives

Method

Prices come from the quotes our search accepts: a stale quote, or one too far from the other marketplaces’ prices, is dropped. When an item has only two usable quotes and one is more than 5 times the other, nothing says which one is right. The median of Steam sales over the last 24 hours breaks the tie, if there was at least 1 sale: if only one of the two is less than 2 times away from that median, above or below, it’s kept and the other is dropped. Otherwise, both are dropped. The listing kept must then have at least 5 listings, at least 2 other marketplaces must list the same item, and from €1.00 up, its price must not fall below a third of their median: lower than that, it’s a suspect reading, not a deal. Under €1.00, a single cent is enough to swing that ratio, so this check doesn’t apply. Steam is never kept as the price: its credit can’t be withdrawn.

Here, a skin’s price is its cheapest listing, on a base item, neither StatTrak™ nor Souvenir.

The ranking uses that price, not the most expensive listing: anyone can list a skin at a fantasy price. A skin only climbs here if no marketplace sells it for less. The price shown is what you could buy it for when the reading was taken.

One row per skin, with its most expensive wear. Most expensive first, 50 rows at most.

An asking price is not a paid price. An item without 5 listings on a single marketplace gets no row, so the rarest pieces are missing here. For a finish with phases or patterns (Doppler, Case Hardened, Fade), the price is the cheapest listing across all phases and patterns.

Before you pay, read what to check before you buy. To see how far the same skin’s price moves from one marketplace to the next: how far prices drift between marketplaces.
