USP-S | Blueprint (Factory New)

The USP-S | Blueprint (Factory New) is a Mil-Spec Grade pistol skin — a silenced USP wrapped in a blue architect's-blueprint theme of fine technical linework. Factory New is the cleanest grade the finish comes in, showing the drafting-paper design at its sharpest.

Design

Created by the community artist Graff, Blueprint covers the USP-S in intricate line work reminiscent of an engineer's sketch, blending technical aesthetics with an inventive concept. It has been hand painted using a blue theme to resemble an architect's blueprint, and it ships with a fitting in-game line: "Sometimes the best-laid plans go awry."

USP-S | Blueprint (Factory New) Float and Wear

Blueprint runs across a float range of 0.00–0.86, and Factory New sits at the very bottom of that scale. At this grade every drafted line reads crisp and the blue base stays fully saturated, with no scuffing to break up the schematic pattern. If you want the design exactly as the artist drew it, this is the top grade to reach for.

USP-S | Blueprint Rarity

Rarity: Mil-Spec Grade — the blue tier that sits at the base of the standard weapon grades. It's the most common rarity to pull from a case, which keeps the finish approachable.

USP-S | Blueprint Case and Collection

This finish belongs to The Operation Hydra Collection and drops from the Operation Hydra Case, released with Operation Hydra in May 2017. The Mil-Spec tier as a whole unboxes about 79.92% of the time from the case (a rate shared across the tier's skins), and with the Operation Hydra Case out of the active drop pool, supply is fixed — most copies change hands on the market rather than from unboxing.

USP-S | Blueprint Patterns

Blueprint has no random pattern variation — the blueprint linework lands identically on every copy, so there's no paint seed or "blue gem" to chase. Wear and float are the only things that separate one from another.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak™ version exists and adds a confirmed-kill counter; it's a rarer, pricier drop than the standard skin, and the counter is permanent, carrying over when the item is traded or sold. There's no Souvenir version — Souvenir weapons come only from Major-tournament packages, and the Operation Hydra Case was a case drop, never a Major souvenir release.

USP-S | Blueprint Price

Factory New sits at the top of the Blueprint price ladder as the cleanest grade available — a clear step above Minimal Wear, a premium USP-S pick that still stays short of grail money. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Why is Factory New the most expensive Blueprint?

Because it shows the schematic design at its sharpest. The blue base is fully saturated and the drafted lines stay legible with zero surface wear, which collectors pay a premium for. Lower grades cost less but let scuffing creep into the linework, so Factory New commands the top of the range.

Does the blueprint linework show clearly at Factory New?

Yes, better than any other grade. With no scratches interrupting the surface, the fine technical lines and the deep blue drafting-paper tone read exactly as the artist intended. It's the grade to pick if the precise schematic look is what drew you to the skin.

Which gloves go with the Blueprint?

Its cool blue palette suits a blue-themed loadout, so blue or navy gloves tie it together nicely, while neutral gray wraps keep the focus on the linework. Pair it with other blue-toned pieces for a clean, coordinated kit.
