Knify: real replicas of Counter-Strike 2 knives

Knify is a French company founded in 2016 by esports and Counter-Strike fans. It specializes in the design and manufacture of physical replicas of knives and skins from the video game Counter-Strike 2. The company claims to have surpassed 50,000 customers and distributes its products in more than 30 countries.

Materials and manufacturing

Knify designs its own models and uses its own molds in manufacturing. It uses materials such as 3CR13 steel or ABS, and controls every stage of the production and assembly process. The company offers two blade versions: sharp, for those looking for a functional knife, or dull, for trick enthusiasts or for decorative use. According to the company, this dull blade option is exclusive to them.

Customization and accessories

Customers can request hand engraving of the StatTrak of their choice on the blade and the NameTag on the handle, replicating the in-game system. Each knife comes in a specific box, accompanied by a custom-fit sheath and an exclusive Knify microfiber cloth. In addition, the store sells accessories such as sheaths, stands, mousepads, and figurines.
