The magic of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO) isn’t only in the heart-racing matches but also in the captivating cosmetic customizations. Among these, knives are the prime attraction. They are highly sought-after, with the most desirable skins carrying a hefty price tag. But what if you could try even the priciest knife types without spending a penny?
CS:GO offers an extensive custom game system that lets you experiment with various knife types. Although you can’t keep these knives or flaunt them in your matchmaking games, this feature is an excellent way to experiment with different knife types before investing in one.
To begin your free knife trial, you need to set up a custom game in CS:GO. This process involves enabling the developer console, which you can do by heading to the settings menu, opening the game settings tab, and switching the developer console option to ‘yes’. After doing so, create a custom game by selecting ‘Practice with Bots’, set the difficulty to no bots, and choose a map of your preference. Any map will work for this process.
CSGO Knife Commands:
Once you’re in the map, you’ll want to max out the round time to get ample time to test all the knives. This step will activate the cheats, hitting two birds with one stone. To do this, open the dev console using the ‘~’ key and input the following commands:
sv_cheats 1
mp_roundtime_defuse 60;mp_roundtime_hostage 60;mp_roundtime 60;mp_restartgame 1
Next, you need to enable the command that allows you to drop your knife like a regular weapon, making way for the new knife to be picked up. To do this, open the dev console and input the following command:
mp_drop_knife_enable 1
Hit the G key to drop your knife and start your knife testing journey.
