Clicking 3D connects to cs2inspect.skin and shares your IP address, site origin and the skin, float and pattern shown here, not your Steam account or inventory. Models can use several MB. No 3D connection is made before you click.
Browser render, not CS2: lighting and wear can differ slightly. The pattern seed places the pattern as in game; check in game before you buy.

How these numbers work
All values are Fade % from the same per-seed data as the checker. Top 1% from is the 10th best of the 1000 measured seeds and Top 10% from the 100th best: a seed at or above it is in that group. The median is the middle seed.
Lowest price is the cheapest copy we track in any exterior and any seed (Skinport, as of Nov 4, 2026); a good seed costs more. The top-10 row looks for this skin's ten best seeds on sale once a day.

About Karambit | Fade patterns
The Fade texture is a gradient the game shifts and rotates by paint seed, so some seeds cover the Karambit almost entirely and others leave most of it plain. Of the 1,001 seeds, 52 reach a full fade (99% or more), 200 sit at 95% or more and 251 at 90% or more.
The seed is printed on the item in game and on every marketplace listing, so a pattern can be checked before buying: paste the inspect link above, or type the seed into the checker.

FAQ
What is the best Karambit | Fade seed?
Seed 412 is the fullest fade in the data at 100.0%. 52 of the 1,001 seeds reach 99% or more and count as a full fade.
What does the Fade percentage mean?
How much of the fade gradient the seed places on the visible part of the Karambit. The scale is this weapon's own: its fullest seed is 100% and its weakest 80%, so the rank next to each seed tells you where it sits among all 1,001.
How do I check a Karambit | Fade seed in CS2?
Type the seed into the checker or pick one from the table, then press Inspect: Steam opens Counter-Strike 2 with that exact seed on the skin, no item needed. The listings button finds that seed for sale on DMarket or CSFloat.
Does the float change the pattern?
No. The seed fixes where the texture sits and the float only adds wear on top, so the seed looks the same at any float. Scratches can hide colour on a worn copy, which is why pattern buyers usually want a low float too.
