R8 Revolver | Crazy 8 (Minimal Wear)

Minimal Wear (MW) on the R8 Revolver | Crazy 8 is a float from 0.07 to 0.15, about 8% of the skin's scale. It is a Restricted revolver from the Recoil Case, and in CS2 it has a StatTrak version. The purple barrel and the eight on the grip survive almost without loss.

What the R8 Revolver | Crazy 8 looks like in Minimal Wear

The upper half of the revolver is painted purple: the barrel and the rail run in a smooth gradient, and small black crosses are scattered across the paint. The cylinder stays dark and is decorated with pale green chevrons. The number 8, in the same pale green, fills the grip.

In Minimal Wear the scuffs are small and the overall look matches Factory New. You can see the difference only by looking at the edges.

Where the R8 Revolver | Crazy 8 came from

The skin arrived in the game on July 4, 2022. That was the day the Recoil Case came out, which Valve describes as seventeen finishes from community artists.

There is no variance of pattern: what one listing shows, the others show too.
