Tec-9 | Decimator (Factory New)

Skin overview

Tec-9 | Decimator is a Classified pistol finish built on neon pink and electric blue lines over a dark base, with a polygonal wireframe running down the grip and magazine. In Factory New the glowing lines stay sharp and unbroken, and the colour shift from cyan to pink reads cleanly from the receiver to the magazine base. This is the grade for anyone who wants the artwork exactly as designed.

Item type: pistol. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Classified is the second-rarest weapon tier, only Covert sits above it.

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

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

How the skin looks in Factory New

The barrel shroud is dark magenta with a neon pink honeycomb lattice outlining its cooling holes, and the upper receiver carries a gradient from pink to light blue with thin cyan accent lines. The central frame and trigger guard are left in plain grey metal, which makes the coloured parts stand out. The grip and magazine are black with a polygonal wireframe that shifts from cyan at the top to hot pink at the bottom, and a small stylised emblem drawn in lines sits on the magazine. On worn copies the barrel tip, the top edge of the receiver, the magazine base and the grip edges lose paint first.

The neon lattice, gradient and wireframe are fully intact with no visible marks. The black base on the grip and magazine is uniform and deep, which keeps the lines bright. In game the pistol looks crisp from any distance. Every part, including the barrel tip and magazine base, is clean.

StatTrak™ and Souvenir

Stickers and crafts

Holographic, foil or neon-style stickers in pink, purple and cyan suit the artwork best. The grey frame above the grip is a good spot for contrast, while placements on the magazine should avoid covering the emblem.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since a low float looks noticeably cleaner on the magazine and barrel tip.
• Inspect the magazine base and the emblem, as they are among the first areas to lose the neon lines.
• Look at the top edge of the receiver and the shroud lattice for chipped spots on worn copies.
• Review any applied stickers and name tag to make sure they match the pink and blue scheme.

Who should buy Factory New

• Collectors who want the neon lines completely unbroken.
• Sticker crafters who need a clean base for bright colour combinations.
• The choice for buyers who value the finish exactly as designed.
