XM1014 | Irezumi (Minimal Wear)

The XM1014 | Irezumi (Minimal Wear, MW) is a Mil-Spec shotgun with a gold-colored body and a snake inked in the Japanese Irezumi tattoo style. Minimal Wear keeps the gold finish and serpent artwork nearly untouched, a step below the top grade at a lower price.

Design

Built on a warm gold-colored body, the finish winds a snake across the shotgun in the flowing linework of traditional Japanese Irezumi tattooing. The artist Madara created it as a community submission, and it ships with a thematic tag: "Snakes represent wisdom and prophecy, two words which best describe XM1014 users."

XM1014 | Irezumi (Minimal Wear) Float and Wear

On the finish's 0.00–0.80 float scale, Minimal Wear lands in the low band just above Factory New (FN). Only the faintest edge wear shows, so the gold stays warm and the snake's linework stays legible. For most buyers this grade looks all but identical to the top one at a friendlier price.

XM1014 | Irezumi Rarity

This finish carries the Mil-Spec Grade classification — the blue tier, and the most common of the colored weapon grades. Skins in this class are abundant and cheap to acquire.

XM1014 | Irezumi Case and Collection

Part of The Kilowatt Collection, this shotgun comes out of the Kilowatt Case, which launched in February 2024. Across the case the Mil-Spec tier pulls at roughly 79.92% (shared among the tier's skins), making it the most common result of an opening and keeping copies easy to find and inexpensive.

XM1014 | Irezumi Patterns

Because the design is fixed, the paint seed has no effect on the look — the snake and ornaments land the same on every copy. No blue-gem or rare seed hides in the pool, so wear grade is the only meaningful variable when choosing one.

StatTrak & Souvenir

There is a StatTrak™ edition, which adds a confirmed-kill counter; it drops more rarely from the Kilowatt Case and costs more than the standard skin, and its counter is permanent — it stays with the item through trades and sales and never gets wiped. No Souvenir version exists, as those are produced only for Major-tournament packages and this finish was never included in one.

XM1014 | Irezumi Price

Minimal Wear sits just below Factory New on the ladder while looking nearly the same, which makes it a savvy value grade. As a budget-tier finish overall, it's an easy, low-cost grab. Available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is Minimal Wear good value here?

Yes. It looks almost identical to Factory New — the gold stays warm and the snake's linework sharp — but usually costs a touch less. Since the whole finish is budget-priced, the savings are modest, yet Minimal Wear is the sensible pick when you want near-top condition without paying for the very best grade.

How worn does Minimal Wear look?

Barely worn at all. Any scuffing sits at the edges and is easy to overlook, so the Irezumi tattoo reads as fresh in-game. If you want the artwork looking close to how it was inked but don't need the absolute top grade, this condition delivers it comfortably.

Can I get a StatTrak Irezumi?

Yes. A StatTrak™ version of this finish exists across the wear grades, including Minimal Wear, and adds a permanent confirmed-kill counter. It's rarer and pricier than the plain version, so expect a premium — but the tracker never gets wiped and follows the shotgun through every future trade or sale.
