Souvenir Five-SeveN | Heat Treated (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

The skin is recognisable by its oil-slick slide: a mostly blue surface broken by purple and golden patches, set against a plain gunmetal lower. Minimal Wear keeps that colour play almost untouched, with only faint marks that are hard to spot outside inspect. It gives nearly the clean look while letting the buyer save compared to the top grade.

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.

The finish style is case hardening.

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

Appearance in Minimal Wear

The slide carries the whole effect: a case-hardened surface dominated by deep blue, with violet and bronze-gold tints appearing near the muzzle, along the sides and around the rear serrations. The frame, trigger guard and grip stay in a dark grey, almost charcoal tone, so the coloured slide stands out sharply above them.

Tiny light marks may appear at the muzzle and on the front edge of the slide, visible mostly in inspect. The colour patches keep their saturation and the transitions stay sharp. At normal viewing distance it is very hard to tell apart from Factory New. The frame and grip still look clean.

Minimal Wear wear: float 0.07–0.15

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

Blue, purple and gold or holo stickers echo the heat tint of the slide and keep the craft cohesive. The dark grey frame is a calm background where a single bright sticker reads well without competing with the coloured slide.

What to check before buying

• Inspect the pattern, because the balance of blue, purple and gold on the slide changes from copy to copy.
• Check the muzzle, the top of the slide and the rear serrations, since the tint wears off there first.
• Look at where the float sits within the wear grade, as copies at the cleaner end keep noticeably more colour.
• Souvenir copies come with stickers already applied, so make sure their placement suits you.

Who should buy Minimal Wear

• Players who want a nearly flawless look while saving compared to Factory New.
• Sticker crafters who need clean colours as a base.
• A smart compromise with almost no visible difference in game.
