Souvenir Glock-18 | Block-18 (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

The skin breaks the Glock-18 into separate coloured blocks, with a dark grey and white slide and a cream grip dotted with small yellow, blue and red bricks. In Minimal Wear the pattern looks practically the same as a fresh copy, apart from faint marks along the slide edges that are hard to notice in a match. It keeps the clean look of the top grade at a lower entry point.

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

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

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

Appearance in Minimal Wear

The slide is divided into rectangular blocks in dark grey, light grey and white, with a blue strip along the top, a small red studded brick near the ejection port and yellow accents at the rear. The "GLOCK" marking sits on a grey block, as if pressed into a toy piece.

Light marks may appear on the front and top edges of the slide and around the muzzle. The grip, the trigger guard and the coloured bricks stay practically untouched. At normal viewing distance the gun looks almost identical to Factory New. Lower floats in this grade are visually very close to the cleanest one.

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

Stickers in pure red, blue, yellow or white match the primary-colour bricks and read as extra pieces of the set. Placing them along the grey slide blocks keeps the brick rhythm intact, while dark or muddy stickers tend to clash with the light base.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since the light base makes the difference between low and high floats easy to see.
• Inspect the slide edges and the muzzle area first, as they lose paint before anything else.
• Look at the grip studs and backstrap, where wear on the cream base shows as greyish patches.
• Review applied stickers and the name tag, as they change how the colourful layout looks.

Who should buy Minimal Wear

• Players who want a near-flawless look without paying for the top grade.
• Crafters who are fine with faint marks hidden at the slide edges.
• A sensible balance between clean appearance and cost.
