3. Bundle gloves with knives when negotiating—offer $110 for glove + knife to save both.

FAQ

Are BS gloves viable? Yes, especially for dark finishes (Moto Transport). Let the design hide the wear.

Should I prioritize gloves or knives first? Get gloves once rifles/pistols are set—they appear on-screen constantly.

What about StatTrak? Gloves don’t have StatTrak—one less cost factor.

Can I rent gloves? Sure, but owning builds equity. Use rentals only while hunting deals.
