MAC-10 | Curse (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

This wear keeps the mummy-themed paint job almost as clean as a fresh copy, at a lower entry point. Any marks are tiny and sit on the sharpest corners of the receiver and the magazine base. In normal play the muted grey-olive scheme reads the same as Factory New.

Item type: smg. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Custom Paint Job: hand-painted across the whole body; this is the type where wear shows most, the artwork rubs down to metal.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Factory New, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

How the skin looks in Minimal Wear

The custom paint job covers the boxy MAC-10 with a graphic image of a mummy, while the visible base tone on the render is a muted grey-olive. The receiver carries ribbed lines along its side, the short barrel and the wire stock stay dark, and the long magazine continues the same grey tone.

Small specks may appear on the sharpest receiver corners and the magazine base. The side panels and the main artwork remain untouched. At normal distance in game it is hard to tell apart from Factory New. Only close inspection shows the difference.

Minimal Wear wear: float 0.07–0.15

The float of MAC-10 | Curse ranges from 0 to 0.5; the Minimal Wear quality covers 0.07–0.15 — 16% of this skin’s scale. Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

Where the skin comes from: collection and case

The skin’s collection is The Huntsman Collection with 20 skins in total. It does not drop from a case: the collection has none — such skins come from operation drops, souvenir packages or the market.

Note: It was removed because one of its creators was also involved with the M4A4 Howl art theft. This is no longer obtainable from the Huntsman Weapon Case, but remains part of The Huntsman Collection and still works with trade-up contracts.

Price by quality

By price this skin is 5th of 15 skins Restricted MAC-10 in this quality (the first being the dearest).

StatTrak™ and Souvenir

There is also a the StatTrak™ version: the counter on the weapon tracks kills. Right now it is 1.8× dearer than the regular one. There is also a the Souvenir version with tournament stickers.

Which stickers suit it

Muted, dark or olive-toned stickers sit well against the grey-olive base and the mummy theme. Placements on the flat side of the receiver keep the artwork balanced, while bright colours tend to clash with the restrained scheme.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since low-float copies of a grade look noticeably cleaner.
• Inspect the receiver edges, barrel end and magazine base, which lose paint first.
• Look at applied stickers and the name tag, as they change how the artwork reads.
• Compare StatTrak™ and Souvenir copies separately, as they are distinct versions of the item.

Who should buy Minimal Wear

• Players who want a near-clean look without paying for Factory New.
• Crafters who accept tiny edge marks.
• A sensible balance of looks and cost.
