Souvenir Sawed-Off | Parched (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

The finish pairs a parched, tile-like crackle pattern with bright teal blossoms, which gives a plain shotgun an earthy, slightly faded look. At Minimal Wear the difference from a fresh copy comes down to tiny marks that are hard to spot outside inspect mode. It keeps nearly the full look of the skin at a cleaner-than-average grade.

Item type: shotgun. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Consumer Grade is the lowest tier of the rarity scale: the most common skins, most often used in trade-up contracts.

Hydrographic: the pattern is applied as a film over the metal; wear rubs it down to the base, starting with raised parts.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Factory New, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

Appearance in Minimal Wear

The receiver and the upper barrel carry a cracked-earth pattern of sand and tan plates separated by dark purple-brown lines. Turquoise and teal flowers are concentrated on the receiver, with smaller touches spreading toward the barrel.

Small specks may appear near the muzzle and on the sharpest edges of the receiver. The flowers and the crackle pattern stay intact. In game it looks practically the same as Factory New. The stock, grip and forend remain clean.

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

Teal, turquoise and muted purple stickers pick up the colours of the flowers and the stock. Sand, brown and dry earthy tones blend with the cracked base, while small floral or nature-themed designs on the receiver keep the overall idea.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since copies at the top and bottom of one grade can look different on the receiver.
• Inspect the receiver flowers, as they are the brightest detail and fade noticeably on worn copies.
• Look at the muzzle, receiver edges and the back of the stock, which lose paint first.
• On Souvenir copies, check the applied stickers and whether they suit the colour scheme.

Who should buy Minimal Wear

• Players who want a nearly flawless look without insisting on the top grade.
• Sticker crafts where tiny edge marks do not matter.
• A sensible middle ground between appearance and grade.
