Popular Covert trade-up targets

Popular knife and glove trade-up targets

Five Covert skins from one case trade up into that case's knife or gloves. Ready-made contracts ranked by expected profit are on knife and glove trade-ups; the odds of unboxing one instead are on CS2 knife odds.

Trade-up targets by case collection

Each case page lists every skin, knife and glove its collection can be traded up into. Knife and glove finishes are also linked from the knife and glove pages.

How CS2 trade-up contracts work

Inputs & odds

10 skins of one rarity become 1 skin of the next rarity (Mil-Spec → Restricted → Classified → Covert). Since the October 2025 update, 5 Covert skins can become a knife or gloves from those skins' case. Each input collection gets its share of the odds (inputs from it ÷ total), split evenly across that collection's next-tier skins.

Float math

Every input float is normalized to its own skin's range — (float − min) ÷ (max − min) — and averaged. Each output's float is its min + average × (max − min), so a restricted-range skin like 0.10–0.20 can only land in the wears its range allows.

Prices, fees & freshness

Values are Steam Community Market averages from the snapshot dated on each page. Profit subtracts the ~13% Steam seller fee. StatTrak™ inputs give StatTrak™ outputs (knives only — gloves have no StatTrak™). Map collections outside weapon cases aren't in DropLabz's dataset yet.
