Knife kills stay exceptionally rare in professional CS2 because of disciplined positioning, heavy utility use, and strong player awareness that limits backstab opportunities. BLAST Open Porto 2026 runs a compact 16-team format with double-elimination Bo3 groups and single-elimination playoffs (Bo3 quarters/semis, Bo5 final), producing a moderate total map count versus longer majors. Comparable recent S-tier events set the baseline low: IEM Cologne 2026 saw just 11 knife kills overall, while many high-level tournaments finish in single digits or offer side prizes simply for reaching eight. With no roster moves or map-pool changes expected to increase close-quarters knife chances, trader consensus prices the chance of 10 or more across the full event well below 50 percent.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if 10 or more total knife kills are recorded during BLAST Open Porto 2026, currently scheduled for August 26 to September 6, 2026. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
A qualifying knife kill occurs when any player is credited with a kill of an opposing player using the knife (any knife variant) in an official BLAST Open Porto 2026 match. Qualifying knife kills are counted cumulatively across all maps of all matches at the event, including any overtime rounds, in both the group stage and the playoffs. The kills do not need to be recorded by the same player, on the same map, or in the same match. Team kills, suicides, and kills recorded in warmups, technical replays, or maps voided by the tournament organizer will not count.
If the total reaches 10 qualifying knife kills, this market will resolve to "Yes" immediately, regardless of any subsequent postponement or cancellation of the event.
If BLAST Open Porto 2026 concludes early, is shortened, or is truncated for any reason, this market will resolve based on the maps actually completed; if fewer than 10 qualifying knife kills were recorded in those maps, this market will resolve to "No".
If BLAST Open Porto 2026 is cancelled before any maps are played, postponed beyond September 20, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, or it is otherwise unclear whether 10 qualifying knife kills were recorded within that timeframe, this market will resolve 50-50.
