Tec-9 | Sultan (Minimal Wear)

The Tec-9 | Sultan (Minimal Wear) shows off its arabesque-inspired mosaic pattern one grade below the sharpest condition. It's a close match to Factory New for a slightly lower price point.

Design

Workshop artist apel8, also behind the M4A1-S | Nightmare and AK-47 | Legion of Anubis, designed the Sultan around an intricate arabesque mosaic covering the Tec-9's body. The line "Ceasefire through increased fire" rounds out the finish's identity.

Tec-9 | Sultan (Minimal Wear) Float and Wear

With the Sultan's float running the full 0.00–1.00 range, Minimal Wear lands just past the cleanest point on that scale. The mosaic tiling still looks tight here, with only the faintest hint of surface wear compared to Factory New.

Tec-9 | Sultan Rarity

The Sultan carries Mil-Spec Grade rarity, the blue and most common tier among weapon finishes. It ranks below the collection's rarer Restricted-and-up grades.

Tec-9 | Sultan Case and Collection

The Sultan belongs to The Arabesque Collection, which arrived with the Season 5 / Armory update in July 2026. There's no case tied to this finish, so copies circulate through trading and the market rather than case openings.

Tec-9 | Sultan Patterns

Every Sultan carries the identical mosaic artwork, meaning there's no random pattern index and no "blue gem" seed to chase on this finish. Only wear grade and float number vary between copies.

StatTrak & Souvenir

This finish exists as a regular finish only — no StatTrak version and no Souvenir version. Souvenir weapons only ever come from Major-tournament packages, and this finish has never been offered in one.

Tec-9 | Sultan Price

Pricing across the board is still settling since this is such a recent release, but Minimal Wear naturally sits just below Factory New on the finish's own ladder while looking nearly as sharp. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

How does Minimal Wear compare to Factory New on the Sultan?

Very closely. The mosaic pattern stays crisp, and the small amount of extra wear at this grade is subtle enough that the two grades look nearly identical from a normal in-game distance.

Where does the Sultan's mosaic design come from?

It's a workshop creation by apel8, an artist also known for the M4A1-S | Nightmare and AK-47 | Legion of Anubis, giving the Sultan a shared design lineage with those community finishes.

Is there a Souvenir Tec-9 | Sultan?

No. Souvenir weapons are only produced from Major-tournament packages, and The Arabesque Collection has never been part of one, so no Souvenir version exists.
