Souvenir Dual Berettas | Duelist (Factory New)

Skin overview

Dual Berettas | Duelist pairs dark slides and polished steel frames with grips of deep blue painted mother-of-pearl set around an engraved silver medallion. In Factory New the pearl shimmer is even across both grips and the patina on the slides has no breaks. This is the grade for a buyer who wants the ornate grip work to look exactly as designed.

Item type: pistol. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

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

How the skin looks in Factory New

The slides are finished in a dark forced patina, close to black, while the frames and trigger guards are polished light steel. Both grips are painted deep blue with a mother-of-pearl shimmer and carry a large engraved silver medallion with floral scrollwork in the centre.

The patina on the slides is uniform and the steel frames are bright without scuffs. The blue pearl on the grips is fully saturated and the medallion engraving is crisp. In game the contrast between dark slides, light frames and blue grips is at its sharpest. Every part of the finish looks 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.

Which stickers suit it

Silver, chrome and dark blue stickers match the steel frames and pearl grips. Gold or holographic stickers on the dark slides add accent without competing with the engraved medallion.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since the patina on the slides changes noticeably between low and high floats of the same grade.
• Inspect the slide edges and muzzles, which lose their dark finish first.
• Look at the outer edges of the blue grips for paint chips on worn copies.
• On souvenir copies, review the applied stickers and whether they suit the blue grip artwork.

Who should buy Factory New

• Collectors who want the blue pearl grips and slide patina without a single mark.
• Sticker crafters who need a flawless base for a matching set.
• The top choice when the ornate details matter most.
