Desert Eagle | Sputnik (Factory New)

The Desert Eagle | Sputnik in Factory New (FN) is a clean copy with a float from 0.00 to 0.07, from The 2021 Train Collection. It is Mil-Spec and plays for both sides. In CS2 a Deagle like this comes with almost no wear.

What the Desert Eagle | Sputnik looks like in Factory New

The slide is ruled into flat blocks over a fine grid like graph paper. The base is dark blue, almost inky, while the blocks are pale blue and gray-white. On the top edge of the slide lies a small mustard-yellow rectangle.

The pattern runs the whole length of the slide and carries over onto the frame and grip. The colors there are lighter: gray-blue and white tiles with a yellow accent. On the grip is a light patch of irregular shape with a halo. The muzzle stays purely dark.

In Factory New the plane of the blocks is undisturbed: no scratches on the edges, no worn corners. This is the artwork in its clean state.

What to check before buying

Before you take a Desert Eagle | Sputnik, look at these points:

• float: on the band from 0.00 to 0.07, which is 14% of the skin's scale, listings barely differ;


• stickers and a name tag already on this copy of the Desert Eagle | Sputnik.

The artwork on the Desert Eagle | Sputnik does not vary, so pattern plays no part in the choice. You can buy here almost blind: the band from 0.00 to 0.07 is tight.

What the Desert Eagle | Sputnik costs in Factory New

This is the most expensive wear of the skin. Minimal Wear is 3.5 times cheaper, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred are 5.4 to 5.5 times cheaper, and Field-Tested is almost six times cheaper.

Getting the Desert Eagle | Sputnik

The Desert Eagle | Sputnik is in no case. A contract cannot produce it: it sits at the very bottom of the ranks of The 2021 Train Collection.

StatTrak and Souvenir

The skin has neither StatTrak nor Souvenir versions.

Stickers and craft on the Desert Eagle | Sputnik

A clean surface leaves a sticker neat edges. Stickers show best on the dark areas near the muzzle, where there are no blocks. On the light tiles of the grip and frame, a small sticker blends into the grid.

Who this wear suits

Factory New is worth buying in the Desert Eagle | Sputnik if:

• you want a clean Deagle with a geometric pattern in blue and gray tones;


• it matters that the flat blocks are untouched by scuffs;


• the gap from Minimal Wear justifies a 3.5 times surcharge.
