Souvenir Five-SeveN | Crimson Blossom (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Crimson Blossom is a wine red hydrographic finish with a rose-bud swirl on the slide, and its float range ends early, so even the most worn copies are not fully stripped. In Battle-Scarred the red is broken by grey scuffs on most edges and contact surfaces. The result reads as a used, weathered pistol that still keeps its colour.

Item type: pistol. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

Hydrographic: the pattern is applied as a film over the metal; wear rubs it down to the base, starting with raised parts.

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

How the skin looks in Battle-Scarred

The frame and grip are covered in a solid wine red, while the slide carries a grey metal base printed with dark crimson rose-bud swirls. The muzzle end and the accessory rail under the barrel stay in plain grey metal.

Grey metal shows along nearly all edges of the slide, at the muzzle and across the lower grip. The slide pattern is broken up by scuffs, and the frame carries scattered grey marks. In game the pistol looks clearly weathered, though the red still reads at a glance. The broad sides of the frame and grip keep enough colour to stay recognisable.

Battle-Scarred wear: float 0.45–0.5

The float of Souvenir Five-SeveN | Crimson Blossom ranges from 0 to 0.5; the Battle-Scarred quality covers 0.45–0.5 — 10% of this skin’s scale. The lower the float within the range, the cleaner the surface looks and the higher a copy is usually priced.

Where the skin comes from: collection and case

Souvenir Five-SeveN | Crimson Blossom belongs to The St. Marc Collection, which holds 18 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.

Which stickers suit it

Stickers in deep red, burgundy or gold sit well on the crimson frame without breaking the colour scheme. Silver, white or cream accents echo the grey slide and the pale controls. Placing stickers on the flat side of the frame keeps the rose-bud pattern on the slide visible.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the grade, since a low float keeps the slide edges and muzzle noticeably cleaner.
• Look at the front of the slide and the bottom of the grip, as these lose the red first.
• Souvenir copies come with pre-applied stickers, so make sure they suit the red finish before buying.
• Check any applied stickers and name tag, as they change how the pistol looks in hand.

Who should buy Battle-Scarred

• Entry-level buyers looking for the lowest-cost version of the skin.
• Players who like a weathered pistol that still keeps its red.
• The budget entry, helped by a range that stops before the finish is stripped.
