Souvenir Sawed-Off | Black Sand (Well-Worn)

Skin overview

Black Sand is a camo finish built on tan and olive stripes over black metal. A Well-Worn copy has lost a noticeable part of the paint on the pump and receiver, so grey metal shows through and the warm tones become muted. The result looks like a weapon that has spent a long time in the field.

Item type: shotgun. 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.

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

Appearance in Well-Worn

The pump forend and the receiver are covered with wide tan, orange-brown and olive camo bands separated by black, painted in loose brush-like shapes. The receiver side also carries small dark rectangular plates and a gear-shaped emblem within the camo.

Large chips spread over the forend and receiver, exposing grey metal between the camo bands. The orange muzzle ring is mostly gone and the colours look faded. The dark barrel and stock still look relatively tidy, since their plain finish hides wear.

Well-Worn wear: float 0.38–0.45

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

Stickers in tan, brown, orange, olive or black blend naturally with the camo. Placing them on the receiver side next to the emblem keeps the military look intact. Bright neon colours tend to clash with the muted palette.

What to check before buying

• Check the float within the wear range, since a low float keeps the forend edges and muzzle ring much cleaner.
• Look closely at the front of the pump and the receiver edges, as these lose paint first.
• Note whether the copy has stickers or a name tag and whether they suit the tan camo.
• Decide if you need the StatTrak™ version, which exists for this skin.

Who should buy Well-Worn

• Fans of a faded, field-used look on a T-side shotgun.
• Budget buyers who still want visible camo colours.
• A good fit if a worn style is what you are after.
