🔷 What is Autotronic?
Autotronic is a dark finish with teal and orange circuit-board accents from the Gamma knife set. The base is near-black, with glowing cyan and warm-orange detailing that catches light on the blade edges.
Placement of the coloured accents varies slightly between copies, so buyers often hunt for examples where the teal wraps prominently across the visible blade face.

❓ FAQ
Which knives can be Autotronic?
Autotronic is a Gamma finish. It originally shipped on the Bayonet, Flip Knife, Gut Knife, Karambit and M9 Bayonet (Gamma Case, 2016), and the Bowie, Butterfly, Falchion, Huntsman and Shadow Daggers were added later via the Operation Riptide and Dreams & Nightmares cases — 10 knives in total.
Do Autotronic patterns matter for price?
Modestly. Copies with more visible teal on the front of the blade are preferred, but there is no strict tier list like Case Hardened blue gems.
Is Autotronic rare?
It is a covert knife finish like any other Gamma skin, so it is scarce relative to gun skins but readily available on the knife market.
Does float matter on Autotronic?
Somewhat — lower floats keep the accents crisp — but the dark base hides wear reasonably, so it is a secondary concern to accent placement.
