Why it works

The blade is polished gold with black tiger striping running down it, and the gloves are deep red leather with gold cranes worked into the back. The gold on the gloves picks the blade up exactly, which is what ties two very different pieces together.

What it costs

With Skeleton Knife | Tiger Tooth in Minimal Wear and Driver Gloves | Brocade Crane in Field-Tested, the set comes to $579. Skeleton Knife | Tiger Tooth is 65% of that; in Factory New it is $312, which saves $63 and is hard to spot in first person.
