Souvenir AK-47 | Breakthrough (Factory New)

Skin overview

AK-47 | Breakthrough is a Restricted rifle finish with grayscale "zed" strokes over a dark carbon fiber base. In Factory New the light slashes stay crisp against the near-black surfaces, and the edges of the zigzags look sharp along the whole rifle. This is the cleanest version of the pattern's contrast.

Item type: rifle. 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.

Hydrographic: the pattern is applied as a film over the metal; wear rubs it down to the base, starting with raised parts.

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

Appearance in Factory New

The rifle is covered in a dark, near-black carbon fiber base with white and light gray diagonal slashes and zigzags running across the handguard, receiver and stock. The strokes are densest on the receiver and the stock, where they form bold angular shapes, and they also extend over the pistol grip.

The finish is complete: every light zigzag keeps its full brightness and clean outline. The carbon base is even and has no scuffs on the receiver, magazine or stock. In game the rifle shows a sharp black-and-white contrast from any angle. Nothing on the weapon looks worn.

What it costs in each quality

Among 8 skins of the AK-47 in the Restricted grade and this quality, this skin ranks 7th by price, counting from the dearest.

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

Black, white, silver and holo stickers match the grayscale artwork without breaking its contrast. A single bright accent such as red or gold stands out well against the dark base. Placements on the receiver above the magazine sit on the busiest part of the pattern, so simple designs work best there.

What to look at before you buy

• Compare the float position within the grade, since lower values keep more of the light strokes on the edges.
• Look at the magazine edges and the stock outline, as these show wear first on this finish.
• Check applied stickers and any name tag, and if you consider a Souvenir copy, make sure you like its pre-applied stickers.

Who the Factory New quality suits

• Collectors who want the full crisp contrast of the black-and-white pattern.
• Sticker crafters who need a clean base for a monochrome or accent craft.
• The top choice when appearance matters most.
