Souvenir PP-Bizon | Antique (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Antique imitates a wood-stocked gun with gold decoration, and Field-Tested is where the theme of age starts to feel natural. Scuffs on the magazine edges and the receiver blend into the painted patina instead of breaking it. The gold scrollwork and wood grain are still clearly readable at normal distance.

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

Custom Paint Job: hand-painted across the whole body; this is the type where wear shows most, the artwork rubs down to metal.

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

Appearance in Field-Tested

The receiver and handguard are painted as dark, weathered gunmetal with gold engraved scrollwork, gold outlines around the vent cutouts and an ornamental medallion near the front. The helical drum magazine imitates reddish-orange wood grain, finished with a decorative gold band and a gold cap on its front face.

Scuffs become visible along the drum edges, the muzzle and the upper line of the receiver, and the gold band on the magazine starts to thin. Some fine gold lines on the handguard may break up. In game the wear merges with the painted patina and the overall look holds together. The wood grain on the grip and most of the scrollwork remain clear.

Field-Tested wear: float 0.15–0.38

The whole float range of Souvenir PP-Bizon | Antique is 0–0.5; Field-Tested takes the 0.15–0.38 segment (46% 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 Huntsman Collection with 20 skins in total.

The source is Huntsman Weapon Case (on sale since Jun 11, 2014).

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

Gold, brown and warm orange stickers echo the inlay and wood grain, while holo or gold stickers suit the ornamental theme. Placing them on the dark receiver gives the most contrast without covering the scrollwork.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the chosen wear, since lower floats keep more of the thin gold inlay.
• Inspect the edges of the drum magazine, as they lose paint before the rest of the weapon.
• Look at the gold scrollwork on the receiver and handguard to judge how much decoration is left.
• Note any stickers or name tag, and confirm whether you are buying a StatTrak™ or Souvenir version.

Who should buy Field-Tested

• Players who want the aged theme to look natural in everyday matches.
• Buyers looking for a balanced price with the design still clearly readable.
• Conclusion: the most practical grade for regular use.
