Just for a bit of fun I've been trying to locate the most likely inspiration for the knife models used in the game CSGO, I've found nearly all of them (which I can share if interested) but there are a few that elude me. I'm beginning to think they are either completely fabricated, based on some chinese knockoffs, or just an amalgamation of some common knife tropes. Anyway, I've attached pics of the four that I can't quite place and was hoping someone may be able to help out. Keep in mind there are cheap replicas already available of these, but I'm trying to find the knives that inspired these, some possibilities I had are:

Strider B46Chinese knock off that prexists the csgo release, appears to be a non-wood variant as well
Browning Stick-it or JKR 162 Throwing?G4 Stryker and other lookalikes were produced after the CSGO release, possible comalgamation of common throwing knife styles
Cammillus SKOL? Scubapro TK15?Weyland Hunting Knife was produced after the CSGO release, knock-off. This is very likely based on some kind of scuba knife given the guthook, wirecutter, and rigging opening.
TOPS Knives C.A.T. Series #202 Covert Anti-Terrorism Knife (3.25" Black Plain) OR TOPS Knives SWAT Spike Tanto Knife OD Cord (5.75" Black) SSPBT-08The HK-1036 and Rogue River model is a cheaply-manufactured blade. This model is likely a stolen design combining multiple source designs. "SWAT Spike Tanto Point Paracord" by TOPS is possible origination design.

I’m pretty sure the Cold steel Espada and the Benchmade Bedlam are in CSGO as well.

Here's someone who asked about some of the same knives you're asking about. More than likely those ones were designed specifically for the game. If you find any real world counterparts, you'll likely have a chicken and the egg scenario.

Thanks, that is very helpful. I have come across several models of knives that were based on the game, but was able to find models that clearly served as a basis for most of the in-game items. The CEO of the game company is an avid knife collector so I'm guessing his knowledge and influence crept into their choices of what knives to include.
 
This is an exciting exploration. I am sure that all the knives that are in cs go were taken from the real world. Of course, the developers have slightly modified them to make them look beautiful. I have a couple of rare knives. My father gave them to me when I was 16. I like these knives, so I decided to buy the same in cs go. I found this site https://skinsmonkey.com/ and bought them. Of course, I spent a lot of money on it. My friends said it was better to open the cases, and if I were lucky, I would save a lot of money. But in my experience, cases very rarely give expensive skins.

I love the exploration of the game, the different skins and Knifex that the developers have created. Seeing the original models and then the cs go versions is fascinating to me. I also appreciate seeing which knives are the most popular and finding out more about the history of different knives. It's interesting to see how the game's developers have taken inspiration from the real world and used it in their own creative way. I am sure that this exploration will be a great journey for anyone who is interested in cs go and its knives. You can learn a lot about the game and its weapons. You can also find out about the history of real world knives and their impact on cs go. I think this exploration will be an interesting and rewarding experience for everyone.

You can check most, if not all, of the based models in the game. The default T knife is really a generic cheap knife "Pakistani" knife.
 
I haven't played any modern COD besides at friends houses or cafes, Call of Duty 3 (WWII) for the PS2 is the last one I owned. I am all about that story mode. I want to shed a tear for my General who got gutshot, you know? Ha

I think it is crazy that people are paying more than the actual price of the Espada XL for the knife+skins in the game. Like... I got a real one here for you, no extra charge!

I am now cringing the day someone calls my Espada, a Falchion.
