Souvenir Desert Eagle | Crimson Web (Factory New)

Skin overview

Desert Eagle | Crimson Web covers the pistol in a deep red base with a black spider web hydrographic spread across the slide, frame and grip. In Factory New the red is even and saturated, and the thin web lines stay sharp right up to the edges. This is the cleanest way to see the contrast the finish is built on.

Item type: pistol. 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 same quality also exists as the StatTrak™ version.

How the skin looks in Factory New

The slide, frame and grip are coated in a solid red base, with black spider web lines laid over them by hydrographic print and sealed with a semi-gloss topcoat. On the slide the web runs along the sides and around the factory markings, and darker shading gathers near the top edge and the rear sight.

Factory New copies show the red base fully intact on every part of the pistol. The web lines are crisp, and the slide edges, muzzle and grip corners have no visible chips. Because the skin starts slightly above the minimum float, this grade covers only a narrow range. In game the gun reads as a clean, solid red with a clear black pattern.

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 and gold stickers sit well on the red slide and do not clash with the web. Red holo or foil stickers blend into the base for a uniform look, while a single sticker near the middle of the slide keeps the web visible.

What to check before buying

• Look at the web placement on the slide and grip, since a neat, centred web is valued over a scattered one.
• Check the float position within the wear grade, because low floats keep the slide edges and muzzle noticeably cleaner.
• Inspect the muzzle, slide edges, grip corners and trigger guard, which lose paint first.
• On Souvenir copies, note which stickers are applied, since they are fixed and change the overall look.

Who should buy Factory New

• Collectors who want the sharpest web and fully intact red paint.
• Players building sticker crafts where a clean base matters.
• In short, the grade for those who want the finish exactly as designed.
