Souvenir Desert Eagle | Kumicho Dragon (Factory New)

Skin overview

Desert Eagle | Kumicho Dragon is a dark gunmetal pistol with a dragon etched in pale silver lines along the slide and purple grip panels carrying a second dragon. In Factory New the engraving is crisp down to the finest scales and wave curls, and the dark metal keeps an even, deep tone. This is the grade for a buyer who wants the line art as sharp as the artist drew it.

Item type: pistol. Classified is the second-rarest weapon tier, only Covert sits above it.

Patina: an aged metal surface; wear is part of the design, so the gap between qualities is less visible.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred. The same quality also exists as the StatTrak™ version.

How the skin looks in Factory New

The slide and frame are finished in a dark grey metal with a slight teal tint, and the whole slide is covered in pale silver line engraving of a dragon. Its head sits towards the front of the slide among curling waves and clouds, while the coiled body runs back towards the rear sight and over the hammer area.

The dark coating is even across the slide and frame, with no lighter spots on the edges. Every engraved line, including the small scales and wave curls, is sharp and bright against the metal. The purple grip keeps its full saturation and the silver grip dragon is clean. In game the dragon is clearly visible on the slide during inspection.

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.

Which stickers suit it

Silver, white, black and purple stickers match the engraving and grip without breaking the scheme. Placed towards the rear of the slide, they leave the dragon's head at the front visible.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since the engraving contrast changes noticeably inside Field-Tested and Well-Worn.
• Look at the muzzle end and top edges of the slide, where the patina wears first.
• On worn copies, check how much of the dragon's head on the slide is still readable.
• Note any stickers or name tag already applied and whether they cover the engraving you want to see.

Who should buy Factory New

• Collectors who want the engraving in its sharpest form.
• Sticker crafters who need a clean dark base for silver or purple accents.
• The grade for those who value the line art above all.
