What is the rarest item in the Operation Riptide Case?

Knives are the rarest drop, at 0.26% for any of the 30. Within those, rarity comes from finish and pattern: a Butterfly Knife | Gamma Doppler Emerald is the most valuable thing it can produce right now.

Why is the Operation Riptide Case so expensive?

Yes. Covert skins from The Operation Riptide Collection can be traded up into one of the case's 30 knives, chosen at random.
