Souvenir Negev | Lionfish (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Lionfish puts a striped red and cream camouflage on the Negev, and in Battle-Scarred that pattern is visibly chipped. The muzzle, the carry handle, the grips and the ammo box show the most metal, while the flat sides of the receiver and stock keep more colour. The float range of this skin stops short of the heaviest wear, so even the worst copies keep the stripes readable.

Item type: machinegun. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Spray-Paint: paint sprayed over the metal; scratches and scuffs appear early but look natural.

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

Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The whole Negev is covered in a red-orange base with wavy cream stripes, each outlined in dark grey, forming a lionfish-like striped camouflage. The pattern runs over the barrel shroud, the receiver and carry handle, continues across the large ammo box and ends on the skeletal stock, while the muzzle and parts of the barrel stay dark metal.

The muzzle, carry handle, grips and ammo box show the heaviest chipping, with bare metal breaking the stripes over wide areas. The stock and receiver edges are clearly worn as well. In game the gun looks rough and used, but red and cream remain dominant on the larger surfaces. Since the range ends before the most extreme wear, the pattern does not disappear.

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

Red, gold, cream or black stickers blend with the striped palette, while a single bright accent reads well on the receiver side. The ammo box is busy with stripes, so simple shapes placed along the receiver keep the craft clean.

What to look at before you buy

• Look at the float position within the wear grade, since a low float in Field-Tested can look close to Minimal Wear.
• Check stripe placement on the ammo box and receiver, as the randomized pattern changes how each copy looks.
• Inspect the muzzle, carry handle and ammo box corners, which lose paint first.
• Check applied stickers and name tag, because they change the look and resale appeal.

Who the Battle-Scarred quality suits

• Players on the lowest budget who still want the striped red Negev.
• Fans of a rough, worn look on a machine gun.
• The cheapest entry, with the pattern still visible.
