XM1014 | Oxide Blaze (Battle-Scarred)

The XM1014 | Oxide Blaze (Battle-Scarred, BS) is a Mil-Spec shotgun finish with a rust-colored base and white detailing, worn to its most weathered state. It's the cheapest way into the industrial design, trading a scuffed surface for the lowest price on the ladder.

Design

Oxide Blaze coats the shotgun in a rust-colored base with white accents, an oxidized, industrial motif that reads as heavily weathered even before float wear enters the picture. Hollandje designed the finish as a community submission, and it ships with the dry in-game line "Not to be used as a load-bearing support."

XM1014 | Oxide Blaze (Battle-Scarred) Float and Wear

This finish is float-capped at 0.70 rather than the full 1.0, so its Battle-Scarred copies — running from about 0.45 up to 0.70 — never reach the most extreme wear the scale allows. Expect heavy scuffing and thinned paint layered over the rust, though the design's already-oxidized character means the damage blends in and the finish stays readable at its roughest.

XM1014 | Oxide Blaze Rarity

Rarity: Mil-Spec Grade — the blue grade, the lowest of the colored weapon tiers and the most common among them. That base-tier status is what keeps even a heavily worn copy so cheap.

XM1014 | Oxide Blaze Case and Collection

Battle-Scarred Oxide Blaze comes from The Clutch Collection, unboxed from the Clutch Case that debuted in February 2018. As a group, the Mil-Spec tier drops at about 79.92% from the case (a rate shared across the tier's skins), so these copies are far from scarce.

XM1014 | Oxide Blaze Patterns

Because the paint job is fixed rather than seed-driven, every Battle-Scarred copy carries the same rust base and white detailing — there's no pattern to reroll and no blue-gem rarity waiting to be found. Only the wear grade and float value distinguish one shotgun from another.

StatTrak & Souvenir

You'll also find a StatTrak Oxide Blaze from the Clutch Case, which brings a confirmed-kill counter along; the counter is permanent and never gets wiped when the item is traded or sold. A Souvenir version was never produced, as Souvenir weapons appear solely in Major-tournament packages and the Clutch Case has never been a Major drop.

XM1014 | Oxide Blaze Price

Battle-Scarred is the entry point of the finish's price ladder, the cheapest grade for anyone who wants the industrial design and accepts the wear. It's the most economical way to add the shotgun to a loadout while staying in budget territory. It's available on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is Battle-Scarred Oxide Blaze still recognizable?

Yes, and it holds up better than most. The rust base and white detailing stay legible even under heavy scuffing, partly because the design already looks oxidized and weathered. Battle-Scarred here is about accepting obvious wear for the lowest price, and this finish's aesthetic makes that wear feel intentional rather than damaging.

Why doesn't Battle-Scarred Oxide Blaze look completely trashed?

Because the finish is float-capped at 0.70 instead of 1.0, its Battle-Scarred copies stop short of the most extreme wear possible. On top of that, the design's built-in rusted look absorbs added scuffing, so the shotgun stays more legible here than many brighter, cleaner-styled skins do at the same grade.

Who should buy the Battle-Scarred grade?

Anyone who wants the Oxide Blaze design on their XM1014 for the lowest cost, or who's building a grungy, industrial loadout. The battered surface only deepens the rusted-metal theme, and it's comfortably the most wallet-friendly way to bring this weathered finish into a collection.
