AWP | Black Box (Well-Worn)

Well-Worn (WW) is the second-to-last wear of the AWP | Black Box, and it takes only 7% of the scale. The float band of this wear runs from 0.38 to 0.45. The skin belongs to The Spy Tech Collection at Restricted rank.

What the AWP | Black Box looks like in Well-Worn

The rifle is matte and dark, graphite in tone. There is no artwork on it, only the orange diagonal stripe on the receiver. The scope tube is black and the lens green.

In Well-Worn the metal shows through more clearly: light scuffs run along the stock, the edge of the receiver and by the muzzle brake. The stripe loses its edge in places. The condition is set at drop and does not change with time.

Where the AWP | Black Box came from

The AWP | Black Box was released on July 8, 2026. NOLFUT drew the finish, and it reached the Workshop on April 26, 2025. By the author's account, it is a tribute to those whose last minutes were preserved in the digital storage of black boxes. The finish is number 1467 in the Valve catalog.

What to check before buying

These things set AWP | Black Box listings apart:

• float: within 0.38 to 0.45 the difference lies only in the number;


• how the orange stripe and the light scuffs on the body look;


• stickers and an applied name, if the previous owner left them on the AWP | Black Box.

The AWP | Black Box has a fixed pattern, and price does not depend on it. In this wear the band is a short stretch from 0.38 to 0.45, so chasing the number is pointless.

Stickers and craft on the AWP | Black Box

The black stock is the calmest field for a sticker. Scuffs on the edges are more visible in WW, and stickers beside them look more contrasting. White and yellow stickers read more clearly on graphite than the rest.

Who this wear suits

Well-Worn on the AWP | Black Box is worth buying in three cases:

• you want a dark CS2 AWP cheaper than Field-Tested;


• scuffs on matte graphite do not bother you;


• you choose by price, and the orange stripe stays readable.
