Souvenir Desert Eagle | Mint Fan (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Mint Fan is a busy pattern of teal and brown fans that gives the pistol a muted, textile-like look. Battle-Scarred is the cheapest way to get it: the edges, muzzle and raised parts are heavily rubbed and patches of the pattern are broken up. The teal tone still carries the look at normal distance, which suits a buyer who mainly wants the colours.

Item type: pistol. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

Spray-Paint: paint sprayed over the metal; scratches and scuffs appear early but look natural.

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

Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The slide, frame and barrel are covered in a halftone pattern of overlapping fan shapes in mint teal and pale tan, separated by a dark brown base that also fills the gaps between the fans. The barrel section seen through the ejection port and the top of the slide stay solid brown, while the hammer, slide stop and backstrap pick up a lighter mint tone.

The muzzle, slide edges, rails and raised parts are heavily worn, and the fan pattern is broken up into patches toward the front of the gun. The hammer, slide stop and trigger guard have lost much of their light tone. In game the gun reads as a worn teal and brown pistol, while the rear of the slide and the grip keep the most colour.

Which stickers suit it

Stickers in teal, mint, cream or brown tones blend with the fan pattern, while gold or copper accents work well against the brown base. Placing stickers on the rear of the slide keeps the most visible part of the pattern open.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within its wear range, since copies near the upper end of a grade show more rubbing on the slide front.
• Look at the muzzle, slide edges and hammer on the inspect screen, as these parts lose colour first.
• Souvenir versions exist, so check whether the copy carries souvenir stickers and whether they suit you.
• Review any applied stickers and name tag, because they stay with the item.

Who should buy Battle-Scarred
