UMP-45 | Crimson Foil (Minimal Wear)

In Minimal Wear (MW), the UMP-45 | Crimson Foil takes 0.08 of a wear scale that the skin cuts off at 0.68, which is 12% of the whole scale. It is Restricted rank, from The Sport & Field Collection, and no case holds it.

What the UMP-45 | Crimson Foil looks like in Minimal Wear

Red foil covers only the top of the submachine gun: the receiver cover, the rail and the grip. The tone is dark red and mirror-like, with burgundy shadows and a light grain. Everything else is left at factory finish: the handguard, the trigger guard and the folding stock carry no paint.

The silver-white magazine with its black stripe stands out against the olive-gray front grip and stock frame. A small orange mark sits by the trigger guard. In Minimal Wear the red layer stays almost whole, and the highlights stay crisp.

What to check before buying

On the UMP-45 | Crimson Foil in this wear, buyers compare the following:

• float: the wear band runs from 0.07 to 0.15, which is short, and the difference between listings falls within the margin of error;


• stickers left by the previous owner, and any rename on the UMP-45 | Crimson Foil;


• how clean the red foil is around the grip and on the rail.

There are no two different patterns on the UMP-45 | Crimson Foil.

What the UMP-45 | Crimson Foil costs in Minimal Wear

Factory New (FN) costs 1.6 times more. Field-Tested (FT) is a tenth cheaper, and Battle-Scarred (BS) a twelfth cheaper. Well-Worn (WW), by contrast, runs a couple of percent higher. The price ladder is uneven, so Minimal Wear is not the next most expensive wear after FN.

Among the nine Restricted UMP-45 skins, this one sits above most: six cost less, two cost more. Scaffold is about a sixth lower, while Continuum and Exposure cost half as much. Gold Bismuth is nearly three times dearer, and Crime Scene is dearer by dozens of times.

Getting the UMP-45 | Crimson Foil

The UMP-45 | Crimson Foil is in no case. A trade-up contract asks ten skins of the rank below, all from the same collection. Among the possible inputs are the Nova | Yorkshire, P250 | Small Game, SSG 08 | Zeno and USP-S | Alpine Camo.

StatTrak and Souvenir

The UMP-45 | Crimson Foil has no StatTrak version. No Souvenir package carries it either, but a copy can be made through the Souvenir-O-Matic.

Stickers and craft on the UMP-45 | Crimson Foil

The red foil and the silver magazine set up two zones: white and gold stickers show well on the red, and any dark ones on the silver. The handguard and the stock are free. Bright red stickers on the red cover blend into it.

Who this wear suits

Minimal Wear on the UMP-45 | Crimson Foil is worth buying when:

• you want a red submachine gun for CS2 with nearly whole foil;


• you would rather not pay half as much again for Factory New;


• you want a finish where red and silver are split by zone.
