An 18-year-old unboxes a rare Karambit blue gem knife

A lucky Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO) player has had an extraordinary stroke of luck. After being banned from Valorant, the individual turned to CS:GO and opened a Karambit blue gem knife. This rare item is valued at over $200,000 in Valve's game. Despite only playing for 34 hours, they managed to land the coveted knife.

The Karambit knife is considered the best pattern in the FPS game, with a 387 pattern. It is also incredibly rare, with only a dozen in the world. Similar knives in good condition have been valued at around $1.5 million. The individual, who claims to be just 18 years old, seems both happy and clueless about the game.

The CS:GO streamer OhnePixel, known for his previous $25,000 deal on the Counter-Strike YouTuber's stream, interviewed the lucky unboxer. The player expressed their disbelief and excitement, stating, "I've just unboxed a blue gem Karambit! It's worth $200,000?" Although they received an offer of $150,000 for the knife, OhnePixel advises that it's too low.

OhnePixel explains that the knife's exceptional condition and rarity make it worth far more than its virtual value. He estimates its true cash value to be around $200,000. The unboxer, who comes from a modest background, expresses gratitude for their unexpected windfall. They admit feeling unsure about how to feel, describing the situation as "really crazy."

Additionally, the winner has received an offer of $10,000 for the knife but has decided to hold onto it for now. The article advises against succumbing to the temptation of opening more cases in search of similar luck.

As the interview concludes, OhnePixel asks the player if they would consider returning to Valorant. The player laughs and firmly responds with a definitive "probably not."
