Souvenir Sawed-Off | Serenity (Well-Worn)

Skin overview

On a Well-Worn copy the turquoise paint of this hand-painted Sawed-Off finish starts to break up, letting the bare metal show through the feathered pattern. The winged woman on the receiver is still there, but her edges and the surrounding paint look rubbed. It suits players who like a used, lived-in shotgun over a pristine one.

Item type: shotgun. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. 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.

The remaining 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 handguard is covered in turquoise with a lighter, feather-like pattern that wraps around its whole length, and the front edge shows a warm orange accent. The barrel and the tube under it stay dark gunmetal, which frames the painted parts.

Paint loss spreads across the handguard, where dark metal shows through the turquoise in patches. The receiver edges are rubbed and the wear begins to reach the area around the figure. The trigger guard is heavily scuffed, but the woman and her wings remain recognisable at normal distance.

Well-Worn wear: float 0.38–0.45

The whole float range of Souvenir Sawed-Off | Serenity is 0–0.5; Well-Worn takes the 0.38–0.45 segment (14% of the scale). Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

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 turquoise, white or gold tones match the palette and the figure's dress. Placing them on the handguard or toward the stock keeps the painted scene on the receiver visible.

What to look at before you buy

• Look at the receiver on the inspect screen, since the winged figure is the main detail and wear near it matters most.
• Compare floats inside the grade, as the handguard edges and trigger guard show differences first.
• Check applied stickers, because placements on the receiver can cover part of the painting.
• For Battle-Scarred, remember the capped range keeps the artwork readable, so compare a few copies before choosing.

Who the Well-Worn quality suits

• Players who like a used, rubbed look on a bright finish.
• Budget buyers who still want the figure readable.
• A grade for character rather than shine.
