Sawed-Off | Fusion (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Fusion keeps its main idea in this grade: a dark, utilitarian Sawed-Off with one bright, intricate panel of black and gold. In Field-Tested light scuffs appear on the edges and the copper stock trim, but the swirl motif remains readable from the first-person view. It suits players who want the artwork without paying for a pristine surface.

Item type: shotgun. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

How the skin looks in Field-Tested

The barrels, magazine tube and ribbed pump forend are finished in plain dark gunmetal grey with no pattern. The receiver carries the main artwork: a dense, flowing pattern of black and gold contour-like swirls that resembles marbled metal, and according to the description more detail shows up under different lighting.

The copper trim on the stock shows visible scuffs and short breaks along its edge. The receiver edges and the outer swirls start to lose some gold. Light scratches appear on the barrels and the forend ribs. In game the pattern still reads well, with wear noticeable mostly on inspection.

Field-Tested wear: float 0.15–0.38

The whole float range of Sawed-Off | Fusion is 0–1; Field-Tested takes the 0.15–0.38 segment (23% of the scale). Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

Which stickers suit it

Gold, holo-gold or black stickers match the receiver artwork and the copper trim. Placing them on the plain grey barrels keeps the swirl panel uncovered and adds contrast to the dark metal.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since cleaner copies keep the copper stock trim intact.
• Inspect the edges of the receiver panel, as the gold swirls fade there first.
• Look at the muzzle ends and the stock outline for early scratches.
• Check applied stickers and a name tag, which may change how the dark receiver looks.

Who should buy Field-Tested

• Players who want the black and gold artwork at a moderate cost.
• Those who rarely inspect the weapon and care about the in-game look.
• In short, a practical choice for everyday use.
