Autographed Shoulders of the Forest Hermit

The Tec-9 | Banana Leaf (Field-Tested, FT) carries the same tropical yellow and black leaf design in the finish's middle condition grade. It's the balance point between price and looks for this Industrial Grade pistol skin.

Design

The finish sentence describes different shades of black and yellow leaves splashed across the frame, a print that reads as loud and cheerful rather than tactical. "Rich in potassium" ties the flavor text neatly back to the banana-leaf idea without adding any extra story to the skin.

Tec-9 | Banana Leaf (Field-Tested) Float and Wear

Field-Tested sits around the middle of the 0.00–0.60 float band, so light scuffing starts showing on the edges and grip while the main print still stays legible. Because the entire float range caps at 0.60 instead of running to 1.0, this middle grade never looks nearly as beaten up as a Field-Tested copy of a full-range skin.

Tec-9 | Banana Leaf Rarity

The rarity here is Industrial Grade, the bottom rung of the standard tier ladder — a common classification that keeps supply high.

Tec-9 | Banana Leaf Case and Collection

Banana Leaf comes from The Harlequin Collection, released alongside The Fourth Season update in January 2026. No weapon case carries this finish, so it's picked up through collection drops or trade-ups instead of unboxing.

Tec-9 | Banana Leaf Patterns

Every copy of this skin shows the identical leaf layout — the paint seed has no visual effect here, so there's no special pattern worth seeking out. Float is the deciding factor, not the seed number.

StatTrak & Souvenir

Only the standard finish exists for Banana Leaf, with no StatTrak counter and no Souvenir tag available. Souvenir status is reserved for skins issued in Major-tournament packages, which this one has never been.

Tec-9 | Banana Leaf Price

Field-Tested lands in the middle of this budget-tier finish's own price ladder — cheaper than Minimal Wear (MW), pricier than Well-Worn (WW), and the grade most players end up owning. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Does Field-Tested Banana Leaf show much wear?

Some light scuffing appears on the edges, but the print's bold colors keep it readable and still attractive. Since the finish is capped well under a full 1.0 float, even this middle grade looks tamer than a Field-Tested skin with a wider range.

Is Field-Tested the best value grade?

For most buyers, yes — it costs less than Minimal Wear or Factory New (FN) while still showing the leaf print clearly. Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred (BS) are cheaper again if the absolute lowest price matters more than the extra polish.

Can StatTrak or Souvenir versions of the Banana Leaf be found?

No. This finish only exists in its regular form — there's no StatTrak counter variant and no Souvenir edition, since Souvenir copies only come from Major-tournament packages that this skin was never part of.
