What makes a copy Souvenir

The Souvenir USP-S | Forest Leaves (Minimal Wear, MW) is the Souvenir copy of this skin — the same Industrial Grade finish, handed out in a souvenir package at a Major rather than pulled from a case. Sprayed by Valve using real leaves as stencils, Forest Leaves layers soft green leaf silhouettes across the slide and frame of the USP-S. Minimal Wear covers 0.07–0.15 on the float scale, a step below Factory New, with wear that stays hard to spot at a glance.

What the stickers do to the price of the USP-S | Forest Leaves

These copies come out of souvenir packages handed to people watching a Major, not out of a case. Each one arrives wearing up to four stickers from the match that produced it: both teams, the MVP and the tournament, fixed in place from the moment it drops. A Souvenir skin is never StatTrak™ — the two are mutually exclusive.

Where it comes from

Price here is mostly a sticker question. Two souvenir copies of the same skin at the same exterior can sit far apart because one came from a memorable match and the other did not — check the stickers on a listing before comparing figures.

FAQ

This skin is part of The Safehouse Collection, which arrived with the "Out with the old, in with the new" update in November 2013.

Can a Souvenir USP-S | Forest Leaves be StatTrak?

No. Souvenir and StatTrak™ are mutually exclusive — a copy is one or the other, never both, and neither can be added to a skin after it drops.

Can the stickers be removed from a Souvenir USP-S | Forest Leaves?

No. Souvenir stickers are part of the copy and cannot be scraped off, unlike stickers a player applies themselves. That is why two souvenir copies of one skin at the same exterior can be priced far apart.
