About the ★ Survival Knife
Overview · Skins
Overview
The Survival Knife is a fixed-blade melee weapon modeled on the Wayland Survival Knife, a design built for rugged outdoor use rather than combat alone. It has a rare draw animation in which the player tosses the blade before catching it, a flourish not every knife shares. The knife entered the game with the Shattered Web update in November 2019, and like every knife it cannot be bought directly; it only appears as a rare special-item drop, unboxed from the Fever Case, the Fracture Case, and the Shattered Web Case. Every finish made for it, regardless of pattern, is graded Covert rarity.
Skins
The wiki lists 19 skins for the Survival Knife, all of them Covert rarity like every knife finish in the game. Named patterns among the rarest include Blue Steel, Boreal Forest, Crimson Web, and Damascus Steel, several of which recur across the game's other knives.
