USP-S | Flashback (Well-Worn)

Skin overview

The skin's identity rests on its lettering, and in Well-Worn SHHH!, BORN TO CLUTCH and the peace sign look faded and patchy. The olive base blends with exposed metal, giving the pistol a used, carried-in-the-field feel that fits the theme. The main motifs are still easy to recognise.

Item type: pistol. The weapon is available only on the Counter-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.

How the skin looks in Well-Worn

The silencer carries a large hand-painted SHHH! in cream over a mottled olive-green base with darker speckling. The slide shows BORN TO CLUTCH inside an outlined frame, with smaller handwritten marks near its rear and along its side.

The silencer lettering is broken into patches, and the end of the silencer shows wide areas of metal. Text on the slide is faded and partly missing, with the small notes hard to read. The peace sign on the grip begins to wear at its edges. In game the overall theme is recognisable, but the cream contrast is clearly weaker.

Well-Worn wear: float 0.38–0.45

What to check before buying

• Check the SHHH! lettering on the silencer, since it is the first large element to lose paint.
• Look at where the float sits within the grade, especially in Field-Tested, where low and high copies differ noticeably.
• Inspect stickers on the slide, as they can cover the BORN TO CLUTCH text.
• Decide whether you want a StatTrak™ or Souvenir copy, since both versions exist for this skin.
