Yes, the MAC-10 | Case Hardened is an excellent budget-friendly choice. Priced affordably, it offers the Case Hardened aesthetic without breaking the bank.

Battle-Scarred covers float values from 0.44 to 1.00 on the CS2 wear scale. This skin's own floats run 0.00-1.00, so its Battle-Scarred copies sit between 0.44 and 1.00. Within that band a lower float looks cleaner in game and usually sells for more, so two Battle-Scarred copies of the same skin can be priced well apart. Every listing's float is shown in the marketplace table above.

Right now the Battle-Scarred is quoted at about $20.06 and the Well-Worn at about $21.27, so the Well-Worn costs 6% more.
