USP-S | Bleeding Edge (Battle-Scarred)

This is the USP-S | Bleeding Edge in Battle-Scarred (BS), with a float from 0.45 to 0.60, which is 25% of the skin's scale, ending at 0.60. It is a Restricted skin from The Radiant Collection, and it does not come from cases.

What the USP-S | Bleeding Edge looks like in Battle-Scarred

The suppressed pistol is painted red throughout: slide, frame, grip and the suppressor itself. Dark worn smears run over the red, small holes show on the suppressor, and the grip and slide are covered in a fine black stippled texture.

The finish is meant to look worn, and Battle-Scarred adds the item's own wear to the wear built into the design. Telling the artwork from the wear is hardest on the red in this wear. Whatever wear a copy has, it was fixed when the skin dropped.

What to check before buying

Before buying a USP-S | Bleeding Edge, check the following:

• float: in this wear it lies between 0.45 and 0.60;


• stickers on the pistol, and a name tag if one has been applied;


• item type: the finish has no StatTrak.

The pattern on the USP-S | Bleeding Edge is not drawn from a pool: all copies are the same. The band 0.45 to 0.60 is tight, and the difference between listings is hard to catch.

What the USP-S | Bleeding Edge costs in Battle-Scarred

Battle-Scarred is the lowest price point of the finish. Factory New costs more than five times as much and Minimal Wear almost three times as much, while Field-Tested and Well-Worn cost a tenth and a fifth more.

Among Restricted USP-S skins in this wear, it sits in the middle of a row of eight: four are cheaper, three are dearer. USP-S | Flashback and USP-S | Sleeping Potion are slightly cheaper, while USP-S | Cyrex costs more than three times as much.

Getting the USP-S | Bleeding Edge

The Radiant Collection was added to the game on March 31, 2025, and the USP-S | Bleeding Edge arrived in the same update. The collection is on the weekly playtime reward list. A trade-up is the second route to the skin: ten skins of the rank below, Mil-Spec, and the result comes from the collection of one of the inputs. A ten drawn from The Radiant Collection gives a one-in-three chance among its Restricted skins.

StatTrak and Souvenir

No StatTrak counter exists for this finish. Valve never issued Souvenir packages for it either.

Stickers and craft on the USP-S | Bleeding Edge

The plain red base takes stickers without a clash. White and black ones stand out, gold ones look warm, and red ones blend into the background. On a CS2 pistol, a monochrome finish leaves all the accent to the stickers.

Who this wear suits

The USP-S | Bleeding Edge in Battle-Scarred is a sensible buy when at least one of these fits:

• you want a worn red pistol at the lowest price;


• you are fine with wear that blends into the worn look built into the design;


• you care more about stickers than about the paint's condition.

If the wear bothers you, Minimal Wear costs almost three times as much.
