The Dust Collection

All collections

The Dust Collection released in August 2013 with The Arms Deal update, tied to the original Dust map. Its standout is the Desert Eagle Blaze, a chrome-based flame finish that is one of the most recognised non-case pistols in the game, with the Glock-18 Brass alongside it.

Most of the collection is cheap desert camo, but the Deagle Blaze is a benchmark skin.

An original 2013 desert-themed collection from Industrial up to Restricted, distributed only through the collection.

  • Restricted: Desert Eagle Blaze, Glock-18 Brass and P2000 Scorpion.

The rare item: Desert Eagle Blaze

The Desert Eagle Blaze airbrushes transparent paints over a chrome base to create a flowing flame gradient with real depth and luminosity, one of the definitive Deagle finishes. Its 0.08 float ceiling limits copies to Factory New and a narrow Minimal Wear band, with prices around €600 to €675. The Glock-18 Brass and P2000 Scorpion sit alongside it at Restricted.

"The Deagle Blaze is chrome-base flame done right, a benchmark for non-case pistol design."

Where the skins come from

Dust skins come only from the 2013 Arms Deal collection, with no case drop path, so supply is fixed at the original distribution. Compare live prices on our markets page.

Trade-up contracts

Ten same-rarity skins from this collection can be traded up toward the tier above, and since the May 2026 update Souvenir skins can be used in trade-ups too. There is no knife or glove craft, and the expected value is negative.

As a collector item

Dust is an old, fixed-supply collection where the camo finishes are cheap, but the Desert Eagle Blaze is a blue-chip pistol with a tight float window and lasting demand. A one-skin collector anchor.
