About ★ Skeleton Knife | Fade
The ★ Skeleton Knife | Fade in Factory New is the cleanest-tier entry to one of the cleanest Fade applications in the knife pool. The Skeleton's exposed-tang construction gives the pink-purple-yellow Fade gradient a fully visible surface from pommel to tip with no handle grip interrupting the colour run. From the Operation Broken Fang Case (December 2020), Skeleton Fade at FN is the headline tier for percentage-driven Fade collecting on this model.
Fade percentages on Skeleton at FN
FN preserves the gradient at peak saturation, and the percentage tier - 80, 85, 90, 95, 100 percent - reads at its visual maximum. A 95-plus percent Skeleton Fade at FN commands the strongest premium in the Skeleton Fade market, with 100 percent copies sitting at the top of the pricing hierarchy. The exposed-tang construction makes percentage differences more visible than on handled knives because the entire gradient is visible during inspect.
