About ★ Butterfly Knife | Stained
The ★ Butterfly Knife | Stained in Battle-Scarred is the wear-floor entry to the teal-and-brown wood-stain pattern lottery on Butterfly. Same Bravo Collection (September 2013) lineage and seed-driven pattern logic as higher-wear versions, but at the deepest wear tier where pattern hunting opens its widest access.
Why BS works for Stained pattern hunting
The Stained colour distribution is decided by seed, not by float - a high-teal play face on Butterfly Stained BS shows the same colour density as on FN or MW. The wear hits the steel substrate between the ink-pools, not the pools themselves. The wood-stain reference also benefits from deeper wear character - the laminate aesthetic implies an aged surface, and BS pushes the visual into a more rustic register that complements the design intent. Pattern-first BS Stained buyers chase the seed, take the wear discount.
