Negev | Palm (Battle-Scarred)

The Negev | Palm (Battle-Scarred) is an Industrial Grade machine gun skin, its gray stencil design shown in the most heavily worn condition available. It's the cheapest way into this Alpha Collection finish, trading surface polish for the lowest entry price.

Design

The design is a gray coat built from sprayed stencils — palm leaves, fine mesh, and cardboard cutouts layered across the Negev. Framed in-game as a memento from Gwalior, it carries the line "Beautiful today...ashes tomorrow."

Negev | Palm (Battle-Scarred) Float and Wear

This finish is float-capped at 0.80 rather than the full 1.0, so even Battle-Scarred copies never reach the most extreme wear a skin can show. The damage is still heavy — broad scratching and paint loss across the body, the gray worn thin — but the cap keeps it milder than a Battle-Scarred skin that rolls all the way to 1.0, and the stencil motifs stay readable.

Negev | Palm Rarity

It's an Industrial Grade skin — the light-blue tier low on the standard weapon ladder, common as a grade even where clean copies aren't.

Negev | Palm Case and Collection

Palm sits in The Alpha Collection, which debuted with Operation Bravo in September 2013. That early operation is long retired, so its drops ended years ago and supply is now fixed — essentially every copy trades hands on the market.

Negev | Palm Patterns

There's no paint-seed lottery on this finish: the gray base and stencil positions are fixed on every copy, so no "blue gem" or rare pattern exists to seek. The only variables between copies are the wear grade and the exact float.

StatTrak & Souvenir

No StatTrak Palm was ever produced, because StatTrak counters are minted only on skins pulled from weapon cases and this one is a collection finish. The same applies to Souvenir: those versions come exclusively from Major-tournament packages, and The Alpha Collection was never offered as a Major drop.

Negev | Palm Price

Battle-Scarred is the cheapest grade of the finish — the entry-level way to own this stencil design for players who care more about the look than the condition. Even at the bottom of the ladder its grail-tier heritage helps it hold value. Available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is the Battle-Scarred Palm still recognizable?

Yes. Despite the heavy wear, the gray base and stencil motifs keep the design clearly identifiable in-game. Battle-Scarred is about accepting visible scratching and paint loss for the lowest price, not losing the look — and the finish's float cap helps it stay readable even at its roughest.

Why doesn't the Battle-Scarred Palm look completely trashed?

Because the finish caps at a float of 0.80 instead of the full 1.0, its Battle-Scarred copies never hit the most extreme wear a full-range skin can. That cap keeps the stencil work legible and the surface from ever looking totally destroyed, even at this grade.

Is Battle-Scarred the best-value Palm?

It's the lowest entry price, so it's the pick if budget is your main concern — you get the full stencil design for the least money, at the cost of visible wear. Buyers who want a cleaner surface for a small premium tend to look at Field-Tested or Well-Worn instead.
