Tec-9 | Raw Ceramic (Field-Tested)

The Tec-9 | Raw Ceramic (Field-Tested, FT) shows the same solid tan paint job with a touch more visible use than the top grades. It's the classic balance between fresh looks and price on this finish.

Design

A plain, solid tan coat covers the frame with no extra artwork, keeping the design about as minimal as pistol skins get. Credit for the look goes to Valve, and it ships with the flavor line "Restore by force."

Tec-9 | Raw Ceramic (Field-Tested) Float and Wear

Field-Tested falls in the middle of the finish's 0 to 0.75 float range. At this grade the tan paint picks up light texture and minor scuffing, which is easy to spot on a solid color but doesn't disrupt the overall look much.

Tec-9 | Raw Ceramic Rarity

This is a Consumer Grade skin, the white rarity tier and the most commonly found classification in the game.

Tec-9 | Raw Ceramic Case and Collection

The finish belongs to The Boreal Collection, tied to the Spring Forward update from March 2025. There's no weapon case attached to it — every copy is obtained through the collection's trade-up and drop system.

Tec-9 | Raw Ceramic Patterns

The tan finish carries no pattern variation between copies — paint seed has no effect on how it looks. Wear and float are the only things worth comparing when shopping for one.

StatTrak & Souvenir

Only the regular version of Raw Ceramic exists; StatTrak was never made for it. Souvenir copies also don't exist, since that status only comes from Major-tournament packages this finish was never part of.

Tec-9 | Raw Ceramic Price

Field-Tested lands in the middle of the price ladder, a step below Minimal Wear (MW) and above Well-Worn (WW), all within an already budget finish. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Does light wear show clearly on a solid tan finish?

Somewhat — since there's no busy pattern to hide it, small scuffs and texture changes are a bit more visible on Field-Tested here than they'd be on a more detailed design. It's still a subtle difference from the top grades at normal viewing distance.

Is Field-Tested the smart choice for Raw Ceramic?

For most buyers, yes — it costs less than Minimal Wear or Factory New (FN) while the plain tan coat still looks presentable. If price matters even more, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred (BS) go lower still.

When did the Tec-9 | Raw Ceramic release?

It came out with The Boreal Collection during the Spring Forward update in March 2025, and it has never been attached to a weapon case, so it's only obtainable through the collection's own drop and trade-up paths.
