Souvenir Five-SeveN | Berries And Cherries (Factory New)

Skin overview

Five-SeveN | Berries And Cherries is a pistol with a two-tone slide: glossy red at the front and blue at the rear, joined by a smooth gradient in the middle. In Factory New the anodized colours stay deep and even, and the gradient reads as one unbroken line from muzzle to hammer. The plain dark frame leaves the slide as the only bright part of the gun.

Item type: pistol. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Anodized Airbrushed: a coloured coating with an airbrushed design on top; the coating holds while the design fades with wear.

Other qualities of this skin: Minimal Wear.

Appearance in Factory New

The whole skin is concentrated on the slide: its front half, including the muzzle face, is coated in glossy anodized red, and the rear half with the cocking serrations is anodized blue. Between them sits a soft airbrushed gradient where the red darkens and passes into blue.

The red and blue anodizing is intact over the whole slide, with an even gloss and no exposed metal. Edges, muzzle face and rear serrations keep full colour. In game the slide reads as a clean, bright block of two colours with a sharp but smooth transition. The dark frame shows no difference from any other copy.

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

Red, blue or mixed red-and-blue stickers continue the light-bar idea, especially when red ones sit towards the front and blue ones towards the rear. Holo or foil stickers echo the glossy slide, while dark or monochrome ones blend into the grey frame without breaking the two-tone look.

What to look at before you buy

• Look at where the float sits within the range, since copies near the cleaner end show no marks on the slide edges.
• Inspect the muzzle face and the top corners of the slide, because the anodizing wears there first.
• Check the rear serrations for small marks on their raised tops.
• Note any applied stickers or name tag and whether they fit the red and blue colours.

Who should buy Factory New

• Collectors who want the slide with no marks at all.
• Sticker crafters who need an untouched base for colour-matched sets.
• The choice for those who value a perfectly clean surface.
