Souvenir AK-47 | Aphrodite (Factory New)

Skin overview

AK-47 | Aphrodite is a Covert Gunsmith finish that pairs an olive metallic receiver with mother-of-pearl furniture in pale pink tones. A copper-red pistol grip and the reddish base of the magazine add warm accents to the calm palette. In Factory New the pearl panels keep their soft sheen and the metallic paint has no breaks.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Covert is the top weapon rarity: usually the most prominent items of a collection or case.

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

Other qualities of this skin: Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

How the skin looks in Factory New

The receiver and dust cover are painted in an olive metallic tone with a thin reddish line running along the side, and the front sight is finished in the same olive. The barrel and gas tube are a dark reddish-brown metallic.

The olive metallic paint is even across the receiver and dust cover, with no breaks at the edges. The pearl handguard, stock and magazine keep a smooth, uniform sheen. In game the contrast between olive and pale pink is at its sharpest. Every part of the rifle reads as clean.

Souvenir version

This is the Souvenir version: such copies dropped to tournament viewers in souvenir packages; the team stickers and signatures on them cannot be removed or chosen. Souvenir items never carry StatTrak™. There is also the regular version without tournament stickers.

Stickers and crafts

Stickers in gold, copper, soft pink or muted olive tones blend with the finish without breaking its calm palette. The olive receiver side is the natural place for a row of stickers, where they contrast with the pale furniture. Holographic or pearl-like stickers echo the mother-of-pearl theme well.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, as lower values keep the receiver edges and pearl corners cleaner.
• Look at the stock corners and magazine ribs on the inspect view, since the pearl wears there first.
• Souvenir copies come with stickers already applied, so check whether they suit the pale palette.
• If the rifle has a name tag, make sure you are happy with it before buying.

Who the Factory New quality suits

• Collectors who want Aphrodite with the full pearl sheen and untouched metal.
• Sticker crafters who need a clean base for a pale, elegant build.
• The grade for those who want this finish exactly as intended.
