Beste Valorant Butterfly-kniver

Valorant offers a wide range of butterfly knife skins, each with its own unique features. In this article, we’ll take a look at the best butterfly knives in the game, starting from the simpler ones and moving up to the absolute favorites.

7th Place — Yoru Comb

• Release Date: September 22, 2021 (part of the VALORANT GO! Vol. 2 collection)
• Price: 3,550 VP
• Description: An unusual butterfly knife in the form of a comb, inspired by the character Yoru.

Starting off our list is the Yoru Comb. This butterfly knife is truly unique: instead of a traditional blade, it features a comb. Its style and originality are undeniable, but in terms of aesthetics and overall in-game perception, there are better options. Nevertheless, for fans of Yoru, it’s a great addition to their collection. Although this knife doesn’t quite make it onto the list of the best knives in Valorant, it still looks very authentic when used with Yoru.

6th Place — Recon Balisong

• Release Date: August 24, 2021 (the first butterfly knife in the game)
• Price: 3,550 VP
• Description: Tactical design with three color variants: blue, green, and red.

In sixth place is the Recon Balisong, the first classic butterfly knife introduced in Valorant. Its tactical look and animations are still impressive, but compared to newer models, the Recon Balisong has slightly faded in the competitive scene.

5th Place — Black Market Butterfly

• Release Date: April 12, 2023 (part of the Black Market collection)
• Price: 4,350 VP
• Description: Realistic design inspired by CS:GO style, with unique color variants.

Fifth place goes to the Black Market Butterfly. This model stands out with its realistic blade shape and rare color variants, including sapphire and fade. Thanks to these features, the Black Market surpasses the Yoru Comb and Recon Balisong in our ranking.

4th Place — Champions Butterfly

• Release Date: August 23, 2022 (released during the Champions 2022 tournament)
• Price: 5,350 VP (no longer available for purchase, like other Champions collection skins)
• Description: A prestigious knife with unique animations and the "Champion's Aura" effect.

Champions Butterfly takes a well-deserved fourth place. It’s one of the most prestigious knives, tied to major esports events. Champions series skins always bring a special atmosphere of victory, and the Butterfly is no exception. Despite its high quality, the competition at the top of the ranking is extremely tough.

3rd Place — Magepunk Sparkswitch

• Release Date: May 29, 2023 (part of the Magepunk 3.0 collection)
• Price: 4,350 VP
• Description: Unique right-click mechanic and a stylish steampunk design.

The Magepunk Sparkswitch lands in third place. Its unique right-click mechanic adds extra flair to the animations. Thanks to this small but impactful feature, the Magepunk Sparkswitch edges out the Champions Butterfly in our ranking.

2nd Place — Singularity Butterfly

• Release Date: September 26, 2024 (part of the Singularity 2.0 collection)
• Price: 4,350 VP
• Description: Futuristic style with detailed design and effects.

In second place is the Singularity Butterfly — the newest butterfly knife in Valorant. Riot Games did an excellent job on the design and effects, making this skin one of the year's standout releases. Its futuristic look and meticulous details make it stand out from most other knives.

1st Place — RGX 11z Pro Firefly

• Release Date: April 27, 2022 (part of the RGX 11Z Pro 2.0 collection)
• Price: 4,350 VP
• Description: A modern look, smooth animations, and versatility make it the gold standard among butterfly knives.

Finally, first place goes to the RGX Butterfly. This knife is rightfully considered one of the best in the game, thanks to its modern appearance, fluid animations, and versatility. Since its release, the RGX Butterfly has only grown in popularity, "aging like fine wine" and remaining a benchmark among butterfly knives.

Conclusion

This is the opinion of our editorial team at EgamersWorld. However, it’s important to remember that just because the RGX Butterfly tops the list doesn’t mean the other butterfly knives are bad — not at all. It’s all a matter of personal preference, so if you like the Recon Balisong, for example, there’s nothing wrong with that. Always remember: skins are meant to bring you joy as a Valorant player.
