Souvenir Glock-18 | Oxide Blaze (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

This is the rust-brown Glock with white flame licks and a crosshair mark on the slide. Since the artwork already imitates salt and corrosion, Minimal Wear is hard to tell from a fresh copy, and the flames and emblem stay crisp. It gives the clean look for less than the top grade.

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

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

Appearance in Minimal Wear

The slide and frame are covered in a matte rust-brown paint, while the front of the slide around the muzzle is washed out to a pale, salt-stained white. White flame licks extend from that pale area back along the side of the slide, and a small white crosshair emblem sits near the rear serrations.

Light marks may appear on the muzzle end and the top edge of the slide. Flames, emblem and grip remain intact. Because the artwork is already weathered, these marks blend in and are practically invisible at normal distance.

Minimal Wear wear: float 0.07–0.15

The whole float range of Souvenir Glock-18 | Oxide Blaze is 0–0.85; Minimal Wear takes the 0.07–0.15 segment (9% of the scale). The lower the float within the range, the cleaner the surface looks and the higher a copy is usually priced.

Origin of the skin

The skin’s collection is The Danger Zone Collection with 17 skins in total.

The source is Danger Zone Case.

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

White, cream and rust or copper-toned stickers match the palette best, and dark brown or black designs work well against the slide. Placing stickers on the rear half of the slide or on the frame keeps the white flames at the front visible.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since a low float keeps the white flames noticeably sharper than a high one in the same grade.
• Look at the muzzle end and top edge of the slide, which lose paint first and decide how clean the copy looks.
• Check whether the flames and crosshair emblem are still complete on mid and worn grades.
• Review applied stickers and any name tag, as they change the look and may not suit your taste.

Who should buy Minimal Wear

• Players who want a near-new look without paying for the top grade.
• Sticker crafters, since the light marks are hidden by the weathered artwork.
• A sensible balance of looks and cost.
