How to get your first knife in CS:GO

Getting your first knife in CS:GO can feel like finding treasure! The most straightforward way is by opening weapon cases with keys you buy with real money. Though it's all down to luck, and chances are slim, it’s the thrill of the possibility that keeps it exciting. You could also save up and purchase one directly from the Steam Market; prices vary based on rarity and demand, so you might find a deal that doesn't break the bank!

If you're feeling lucky, cases are the way to go. But if you're like me and luck isn't on your side, check out trading forums or dedicated CS:GO trading sites. Sometimes players are willing to trade knives for a bunch of lower-value items or other skins. Just make sure you're not getting scammed!

Honestly, just buy it from the Steam Market. The whole case opening thing is a gamble and most of the time, you end up spending more than the knife is worth. Find a knife you like and save up for it, it's more straightforward and less heartbreaking.
