Souvenir AK-47 | Aquamarine Revenge (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

This is the same aquamarine-and-red AK-47 with the dolphin motif, at a grade that usually costs less than the cleanest copies. Any marks sit on edges and are hard to spot outside the inspect screen. In a match the rifle reads just as bright and colourful as a fresh one.

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.

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. The same quality also exists as the StatTrak™ version.

Appearance in Minimal Wear

The receiver carries the main artwork: red and orange dolphin shapes over a turquoise background filled with fine, intricate lines. The dust cover is dark grey with teal edging, while the front sight, gas tube and handguard area pick up the aquamarine tone and a thin red line runs along the lower barrel.

Small specks of wear may appear on the sharpest edges of the receiver and the front of the handguard. The dolphin artwork and the turquoise background remain intact. At normal distance in game it is indistinguishable from Factory New. Stock, grip and magazine look 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 red, orange or turquoise pick up the colours of the artwork, and holo or foil stickers in cool blue tones match the aquamarine base. Placing them on the dark grey dust cover or stock keeps the dolphins on the receiver uncovered.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within its wear grade, since a low value inside the grade keeps the dolphin artwork noticeably cleaner.
• Inspect the receiver closely, as that is where the main artwork and the first wear on it appear.
• Compare screenshots of several copies, because the position of the artwork on the receiver can differ slightly.
• Look at applied stickers and the name tag, and decide whether they add to the look or only to the cost.

Who should buy Minimal Wear

• Players who want a near-clean look and are willing to accept tiny edge marks to save compared to Factory New.
• Sticker crafters, since the artwork remains whole.
• A practical choice for a clean-looking rifle at a lower cost.
