Souvenir Desert Eagle | Oxide Blaze (Factory New)

Skin overview

Desert Eagle | Oxide Blaze is a Mil-Spec pistol skin with a rust-coloured base and white detailing laid over the slide. In Factory New the cream patches on top of the slide keep crisp borders, and the black scuffed areas near the muzzle read as part of the artwork rather than real damage. This is the grade for a buyer who wants the distressed design exactly as drawn.

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

Custom Paint Job: hand-painted across the whole body; this is the type where wear shows most, the artwork rubs down to metal.

Other 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 is painted in a rust-brown base with large cream and white patches across its top and upper sides, broken by black scuff marks towards the muzzle. The Magnum Research engraving on the side of the slide stays visible through the paint.

The paint is intact on every part, and the cream patches on the slide keep sharp outlines. All scuffs visible near the muzzle belong to the artwork. In game the brown and white contrast reads clearly at normal distance. The frame, trigger guard and grip look fully 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 brown, cream, black or muted orange match the rust base and pale slide patches. Placing them on the brown frame area keeps the white detailing on the slide visible. Matte or worn-looking stickers fit the distressed theme better than bright holographic ones.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear grade, since copies near the cleaner end of each grade show less chipping on the slide edges.
• Look at the slide edges, muzzle and trigger guard, which lose paint first.
• Remember that the scuffs near the muzzle are part of the artwork and not a sign of extra wear.
• Check stickers and name tag, as they change the look and do not always match the brown and cream palette.

Who should buy Factory New

• Collectors who want the distressed artwork exactly as designed.
• Sticker crafters who need a clean base for a coordinated look.
• Conclusion: the reference version of the skin, picked for its intact detailing.
