Skins by rarity

A small early set of 12 weapon finishes from Mil-Spec up to Covert, plus a knife behind the case.

  • Covert: SSG 08 Blood in the Water.
  • Classified: USP-S Serum and P90 Cold Blooded.
  • Restricted and Mil-Spec: Five-SeveN Case Hardened, Dual Berettas Hemoglobin, MP9 Hypnotic and more, from cents to a few dollars.

The rare item: SSG 08 Blood in the Water

The Blood in the Water is airbrushed with a detailed shark, one of the most immediately recognisable designs in the whole scout catalogue and a Day-1 Covert from the second case ever. Its 0.06 float floor means there is no true Factory New, so clean Minimal Wear copies around €164 are the target, with StatTrak far higher.

"An airbrushed shark on a Day-1 scout. Blood in the Water never left the community's admiration."

Where the skins come from

Arms Deal 2 Collection skins drop from CS:GO Weapon Case 2, one of the first cases in the game, which holds a knife as its rare special. Compare live prices on our markets page.

Trade-up contracts

You can trade up ten same-rarity skins from this collection toward the tier above, and since 2025 you can craft a knife from five Covert items. The expected value is negative, so craft for the item, not the profit.

As a collector item

Arms Deal 2 is a 2013 case that has long left the drop pool, so supply is fixed and the collection carries early-era interest. Blood in the Water anchors demand as a landmark scout skin. A strong long-term hold.
