A mid-tier covert with a strong floor and a capped float profile, this Tiger Tooth variant mostly trades to the mainstream collector who wants clean, flashy blades. Demand concentrates at the clean end and the market has recovered a touch recently after a longer downtrend, so timing matters before you cash out.

This sits squarely in the mid bracket among knives: not grail money, but not budget either. Valve's Anodized Multicolored finish and the covert skeleton knife silhouette keep it on the radar of mainstream traders, and the market treats it like a durable mid play with a firm base for sellers to lean on.
The ladder is front‑loaded toward the clean end with a clear step off as wear climbs, so the payout curve bends sharply from top‑condition copies and then flattens through mid and lower wears. For sellers that means the premium is concentrated where the finish reads its sharpest; the rest of the ladder slides together.
Expect a seller's net to be noticeably under the sticker tag buyers scroll past; active asks are often higher than what clears into cash. That gap widens when listings are fresh and tightens as the market digests recent trades, so use live blocks to set realistic expectations before you hit sell.
Lower wears live in a narrow band thanks to the compressed spread, so a worn copy rarely lags far behind its slightly cleaner peers. If you're holding a lower‑wear example you won't be punished heavily for wear alone; rarity and the clean end still drive the heavy money.
Because the finish is capped, the worst copies are cleaner than typical uncapped knives and the bottom of the ladder behaves differently than a full float spread. That reduces tail risk for sellers who pick up a higher‑float example; the skin retains better baseline appeal than most uncapped finishes.
Pattern index does nothing here, so you price this strictly by float and wear rather than hunting for a rare index. That simplifies listings and reduces surprise volatility for anyone moving stock quickly.
StatTrak copies exist and carve their own demand lane; they are sought after by buyers who want the counter and will clear it faster than a matching non‑ST. For sellers, StatTrak moves separately but predictably - not a different asset class, just a parallel track with steadier takers.
It drops from the Fever Case, which keeps supply steady but not excessive compared with older containers. That origin makes it familiar to buyers and keeps inflows consistent rather than episodic.
The palette reads bright and aggressive with a core yellow accent that catches the eye under different lighting, while the Anodized Multicolored finish gives the blade a lively, shifting surface. Designers at Valve gave it pop that shows at distance and up close, which helps sellability in inventories and screenshots.
The all‑time band for this knife is massive, so the market has swung widely between cautious floors and euphoric tops. Right now the skin sits nearer the lower side of that band after a long slide, though recent softness in the short term has nudged it back toward firmer footing.
Buyers should treat asks like a pick point, not a certainty; the sensible entry is where the live sell orders have depth and not at the very top of the ladder. If you're acquiring to flip, prefer listings that match the clean end profile or offer narrow spreads to the market floor.
Names like olofmeister and roeJ keep the skin visible during broadcasts and highlight reels, which keeps occasional demand alive beyond pure collector flows. That pro linkage is never a constant driver, but it surfaces during peaks in interest and helps sustain long‑term recognizability.
