Souvenir Five-SeveN | Monkey Business (Well-Worn)

Skin overview

Monkey Business pairs a yellow banana peel with a slate grey frame and a blue fruit label, so the pistol is recognisable at a glance. A Well-Worn copy looks like a banana that has been carried around: the peel is scuffed along the top of the slide and the curve near the grip. The contrast between yellow and grey keeps the look intact.

Item type: pistol. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Classified is the second-rarest weapon tier, only Covert sits above it.

Custom Paint Job: hand-painted across the whole body; this is the type where wear shows most, the artwork rubs down to metal.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Minimal Wear, Field-Tested and Battle-Scarred. The same quality also exists as the StatTrak™ version.

How the skin looks in Well-Worn

The slide is painted as a banana: a saturated yellow peel with thin darker seams runs from a brown tip at the muzzle back along the top and sides. At the rear the peel bends down and follows the front strap of the grip, ending in a second brown tip at the base.

The chips at the muzzle and slide top grow into scuffed stretches, and wear spreads to the bend of the peel and the grip front. The yellow looks duller and patchy in places. In game the banana is still obvious, but it looks used. The sides of the slide keep most of their colour.

Well-Worn quality — float range 0.38–0.45

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

Blue stickers echo the trigger and the fruit label and stand out well against the yellow slide. Dark or holo stickers fit the grey frame below the peel, and banana or monkey themed stickers suit the joke of the design.

What to check before buying

• Look at the float within the chosen grade, since wear starts at the muzzle and the top edges of the slide.
• Check the curve of the peel on the grip front, which shows wear early on worn copies.
• Check stickers and name tags, as yellow-heavy stickers can blend into the peel.
• Decide between StatTrak™ and Souvenir versions, as both exist for this skin.

Who the Well-Worn quality suits

• Players who do not mind scuffs at the slide edges.
• Budget buyers who still want a clearly yellow banana.
• A practical entry option.
