Souvenir Negev | Anodized Navy (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

This is a two-tone Negev where navy anodized metal frames a pale khaki receiver, drum and stock. Because the skin has a very short float range, Minimal Wear copies sit just past the cleanest grade. The look is practically the same as a new copy, which makes this wear a sensible way to get the same scheme.

Item type: machinegun. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

Anodized: the colour is in the metal coating itself, so wear shows mostly as dulling rather than a rubbed-off pattern.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Factory New.

Appearance in Minimal Wear

The upper receiver, top cover, barrel shroud area, front and rear sights and the carrying handle base carry the navy blue anodized coat, which has a glossy, slightly metallic depth from the chrome underneath. The main receiver body, the drum magazine box, the vertical foregrip and the folding skeleton stock are in a light khaki grey.

Wear at this grade is limited to faint thinning of the anodized coat on the sharpest points, such as the sight posts and the muzzle edge. The khaki parts of the body, the drum and the stock remain clean. In first-person view the difference from Factory New is hard to spot, and the navy keeps its depth on the large panels. The overall look stays the same as a new copy.

Minimal Wear quality — float range 0.07–0.08

The whole float range of Souvenir Negev | Anodized Navy is 0–0.08; Minimal Wear takes the 0.07–0.08 segment (12% of the scale). Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

Origin of the skin

The skin’s collection is The Assault Collection with 7 skins in total. It does not drop from a case: the collection has none — such skins come from operation drops, souvenir packages or the market.

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

Navy, silver and white stickers echo the anodized metal and keep the scheme calm. Placed on the pale khaki receiver sides, darker stickers stand out clearly, while gold or holo accents work as a single highlight.

What to look at before you buy

• Compare the float within the grade, since the range is short and both wears look very close.
• Inspect the sight posts and muzzle, where the navy coat thins first.
• Check whether the copy is a Souvenir and which stickers it carries.
• Look at any name tag or applied stickers, as they change the clean two-tone look.

Who the Minimal Wear quality suits

• Players who want the same two-tone look without paying for the top grade.
• Buyers for whom the in-game view matters more than the wear label.
• Those trying out the Negev for the first time on a budget.
• A practical way to get practically the same appearance.
