Souvenir AWP | Lightning Strike CS2 Price

Float values in CS2 determine a skin's wear level on a scale from 0.00 (perfect) to 1.00 (maximum wear). This is a restricted float skin that can only drop in Factory New or near-FN condition, making all examples relatively clean. Lower float values within any condition category (e.g., 0.01 vs 0.06 in Factory New) result in cleaner appearances and typically command higher prices. For high-value trades, always verify the exact float value using inspection tools.
