AK-47 | Crossfade (Factory New)

The AK-47 | Crossfade in Factory New (FN) has a float band of 0.00 to 0.07, the cleanest this skin offers. It is a Mil-Spec skin from The Graphic Design Collection. There is no case for it, and in this wear the rifle costs more than in any other wear.

What the AK-47 | Crossfade looks like in Factory New

The rifle wears a pearlescent blend of peach, turquoise and lilac. Peach-pink sits toward the middle of the receiver, turquoise-blue creeps toward the cover, and lilac runs onto the stock. The magazine and barrel are dark gray and take no part in the color blend.

The blend covers the receiver, cover, handguard and stock in one piece, with no motif and no borders. The stock carries a fine mesh texture. The receiver has a red indicator dot and a few thin pale lines. There is no lettering.

In Factory New the pastel tones hold in full, with nothing yet to turn gray at the edges. The top of the receiver and the butt plate, which lighten first, stay clean here.

Where the AK-47 | Crossfade came from

Valve made this skin itself, so no Steam Workshop submission stands behind it. The Graphic Design Collection came out in October 2024, and the AK-47 | Crossfade arrived with the same update. In Valve's catalog it is number 912.

What to check before buying

Before paying, buyers of the AK-47 | Crossfade look at these points:

• float: the 0.00 to 0.07 span is short, and the difference between listings falls within rounding;


• the artwork does not vary, so the pattern index plays no part in the choice;


• stickers on the AK-47 | Crossfade and a name tag, if one is applied.

Stickers and craft on the AK-47 | Crossfade

The soft pastel blend carries bright CS2 stickers calmly, and on a clean Factory New they look neatest. A large sticker shows well on the handguard and the mesh of the stock. Small details on the receiver compete with the red dot and the thin lines.

• you want a CS2 rifle with an unbroken pearlescent blend and untouched edges;


• the cleanest picture matters, and you can see the premium for it up front;
