Souvenir MAC-10 | Graven (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

This MAC-10 is recognisable by its warm olive-gold receiver set against grey metal parts and a pale khaki sling. In Minimal Wear the patina keeps its colour and texture almost fully, and the few marks it picks up sit on edges that are hard to spot in game. It gives nearly the same look as the cleanest grade at a more relaxed cost.

Item type: smg. 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.

Patina: an aged metal surface; wear is part of the design, so the gap between qualities is less visible.

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 receiver carries the main artwork: an olive-yellow, brass-toned patina with a fine mottled engraving and faint warm specks across the top and sides. The short dark barrel nub, the grey trigger guard and the wire stock contrast with the olive body.

Light marks may appear on the sharpest receiver edges and the front corner near the barrel. The engraving and colour on the flat sides remain intact. At normal distance in game it is hard to tell apart from Factory New. The side ribs and top surface still look clean.

Minimal Wear quality — float range 0.07–0.15

The whole float range of Souvenir MAC-10 | Graven is 0.06–0.8; Minimal Wear takes the 0.07–0.15 segment (11% 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

Souvenir MAC-10 | Graven belongs to The Bravo Collection, which holds 15 skins.

It drops from Operation Bravo Case (on sale since Sep 20, 2013).

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

Gold, brass and warm brown stickers continue the aged-metal theme of the receiver. Dark or muted green stickers also sit well on the olive surface, while a single accent on the flat receiver side keeps the engraving readable.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the chosen wear, since the receiver edges and ribs show the difference first.
• Look at the front of the receiver near the barrel and the top rail on worn copies, where the patina rubs off earliest.
• Check applied stickers and any name tag, as they change how the olive receiver reads.
• Decide whether you want StatTrak™ or a Souvenir copy before comparing offers.

Who should buy Minimal Wear

• Players who want a near-clean look in game while saving compared with the top grade.
• Sticker crafts where tiny edge marks do not matter.
• A sensible balance between look and cost.
