Souvenir Five-SeveN | Nightshade (Well-Worn)

Skin overview

The finish is a hydrographic floral pattern on a dark slide over a plain slate-blue frame, a quiet and muted combination for a sidearm. In Well-Worn the flowers are noticeably scuffed and bare metal shows along the slide and muzzle, yet the overall colour scheme is still clear. It suits players who like a used, weathered look on an inexpensive pistol.

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.

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

Appearance in Well-Worn

The slide is dark charcoal grey with a hydrographic floral print: a large pale bloom with a red outline near the muzzle and smaller cream flowers and leaves running back toward the rear sight. The accessory rail under the barrel carries the same dark patterned finish.

The slide shows broad scuffed areas, with bare metal along the top, the front of the slide and the rail edges. Smaller flowers are partly lost, while the large bloom near the muzzle survives in patches. In game the slide reads as dark with faded pale spots rather than a crisp pattern. The grip begins to show wear on its bottom corners, though the blue tone stays intact.

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 cream, dusty pink, muted red or dark blue match the floral print and the slate frame. Placing them on the plain blue frame keeps the slide pattern uncluttered, while small pale stickers on the slide can blend in with the flowers.

What to check before buying

• Check the float position within the wear, since the slide top and edges show the difference first.
• Look at the large flower near the muzzle, as it is the main focal point and wears early on more used copies.
• Note that the float range stops early, so Battle-Scarred copies look milder than the name suggests.
• Check applied stickers and name tags, since they change the look of the plain blue frame.

Who the Well-Worn quality suits

• Players who prefer a weathered, used look.
• Budget buyers who still want visible flowers on the slide.
• A low-cost option with character.
