Paint Seed defines the texture placement. These seeds are prized by collectors and sell for multiples of the base price.

Case Hardened — Blue Gem

The more blue on the play side, the pricier. Top seeds with a blue AK top or Karambit blade go for tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Community judgement

Tiers are compiled by collectors from how the skin looks: Valve publishes no such lists, and sources disagree.

Tiers are the collector community’s judgement, not Valve data.
