The Breakout Collection released on 1 July 2014 with Operation Breakout. It drops from the Operation Breakout Weapon Case and is anchored by two staples, the M4A1-S Cyrex and the P90 Asiimov.
The case introduced the Butterfly Knife and has long left the drop pool, so both Coverts have aged into classics.

17 weapon finishes from Mil-Spec up to Covert, plus the Butterfly Knife behind the case.
The Cyrex is a high-tech design in black, white and red across the silenced rifle, a benchmark M4A1-S finish that has held demand for years. Factory New copies sit around €172, with the float ceiling at 0.50 keeping supply in cleaner grades, and the P90 Asiimov is the second Covert.
"Cyrex and Asiimov are 2014 classics that never went out of style. Breakout is a nostalgia case with staying power."
Breakout Collection skins came from the Operation Breakout Weapon Case, which introduced the Butterfly Knife as its rare special. Compare live prices on our markets page.
You can trade up ten same-rarity skins from this collection toward the tier above, and since 2025 you can craft the Butterfly Knife from five Covert items. The expected value is negative, so craft for the item, not the profit.
Breakout has been out of the drop pool for years, so supply is fixed and the Butterfly Knife behind it is a marquee item. Cyrex and Asiimov are recognised classics with steady demand. A stronger long-term hold than a modern active case.
