MP7 | Astrolabe (Battle-Scarred)

The MP7 | Astrolabe (Battle-Scarred, BS) is the roughest-looking grade of this metallic gray, dark-based Industrial Grade finish. It's the cheapest entry point into the design for buyers prioritizing price over polish.

Design

A metallic pattern over a dark body defines the Astrolabe's sleek, circuit-inspired aesthetic. It's a Valve-made finish carrying the flavor line "IT'S NOT A CIRCUIT BOARD!"

MP7 | Astrolabe (Battle-Scarred) Float and Wear

Battle-Scarred sits at the top of Astrolabe's float range, and because that range runs the full 0.00 to 1.00, this grade can reach the most heavily worn look the game allows — expect substantial scratching and faded, chipped metallic detailing across the body.

MP7 | Astrolabe Rarity

This is an Industrial Grade skin, one tier above the base Consumer rarity and a common-to-moderate classification overall.

MP7 | Astrolabe Case and Collection

Astrolabe is part of The Graphic Design Collection, released with The Armory update in October 2024. No weapon case has ever dropped it — it's sourced only from the collection pool or the market.

MP7 | Astrolabe Patterns

The metallic pattern doesn't shift between copies — there's no seed to search for, so it's wear and float alone that set one Astrolabe apart from another.

StatTrak & Souvenir

Astrolabe has never had a StatTrak or Souvenir version — only the regular finish exists. Souvenir editions are strictly Major-tournament products, and this finish has never been included in one.

MP7 | Astrolabe Price

Battle-Scarred is the cheapest grade on the Astrolabe's ladder, offering the design's modern look for the lowest price among its wears. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

How worn can the Battle-Scarred Astrolabe get?

Since the finish's float runs the full 0.00 to 1.00 range, Battle-Scarred copies can reach the heaviest wear the game allows — significant scratching and faded metallic detail across the body.

Is the Battle-Scarred Astrolabe still recognizable in-game?

Yes. Even at heavy wear, the metallic pattern's overall shape stays visible enough to identify, though fine detail is noticeably softened compared to cleaner grades.

Is Battle-Scarred the best budget pick for the Astrolabe?

If price is your main concern, yes — it's the cheapest way to own this premium-tier finish. Buyers who want more surface polish for a modest premium usually step up to Well-Worn (WW) or Field-Tested (FT) instead.
