Buying tips

• Always check the float value — premium knife patterns scale heavily with low floats.
• On Doppler patterns, check the Phase (1-4, Ruby, Sapphire, Black Pearl). Each phase has a very different price.
• Stickers on knives are unusual but possible. Most collectors avoid stickered knives.
• Cross-check P2P pricing — knife discounts vs Steam Market are usually the steepest of any category.
