Skin in Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) usually has countless variations, based on weapon type, style… In particular, the Case Hardened skin has a rare line called Blue Gem, in which the majority of the weapon is covered in a bright blue patina ball. These are often the rarest and most expensive items in the game. For example, the owner of a rare Blue Gem knife received an offer of up to $1.5 million to sell it, but he turned it down.
Now another equally rare Blue Gem skin has been found, this time for the AK-47 – CS2’s best and most popular weapon. Skin AK-47 Case Hardened has been added to CS:GO since 2013, but no one has ever opened or crafted the StatTrak, Factory New, 661 pattern version. There are many StatTrack 661 Pattern AKs in existence but they only have the status of ‘ Minimal Wear,’ not Factory New’.
The rare skins appeared on the Chinese trading site
But on January 15, this legendary AK-47 Hardened StatTrak Factory New 661 model appeared on a Chinese trading website. Famous Twitch streamer ohnePixel shared about this discovery on X/Twitter and estimated the value of this skin to be between 800,000 and 1 million USD (equivalent to 19.6 – 24.5 billion VND).
Despite this sky-high price, it’s still not the most valuable skin in the game CS:GO, the number 1 position currently belongs to 387 Pattern Karambit Case Hardened, with a value of more than 1.5 million USD. Currently, it is still unclear who owns this million dollar skin.
