Description
This is a custom-designed balisong, commonly known as a butterfly knife. The defining characteristic of this weapon is the fan-like opening of a freely pivoting blade, allowing rapid deployment or concealment. As a result, butterfly knives are outlawed in many countries. It has been painted using a blue camo hydrographic.
History
The Butterfly Knife "Bright Water" was first introduced to Counter-Strike 5 years ago, on September 21st, 2021. It was released as part of the Operation Riptide Case, alongside the "Operation Riptide" update. The skin was created by Valve itself instead of a community designer.
