Souvenir Dual Berettas | Duelist (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Blue mother-of-pearl, a silver floral medallion and a dark forced patina make the Duelist easy to recognise even when worn. In Field-Tested the grips still carry their colour, while the slides and frame edges begin to show lighter rubbed metal. The finish starts to look used, which suits its gunsmith character.

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.

Other qualities of this skin: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

Appearance in Field-Tested

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 is visibly rubbed along slide edges and raised details, showing lighter metal beneath. The outer edges of the grips begin to lose small flecks of blue. In game the pistols read as used but the colour scheme is intact. The centre of the grips and the medallion still look clean.

Field-Tested quality — float range 0.15–0.38

Where the skin comes from: collection and case

Souvenir Dual Berettas | Duelist belongs to The Chop Shop Collection, which holds 16 skins. It does not drop from a case: the collection has none — such skins come from operation drops, souvenir packages or the market.

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

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 check before buying

• 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 the Field-Tested quality suits

• Players who want the full colour scheme at a moderate cost.
• Buyers who like a lightly used gunsmith look.
• The balanced everyday option.
