AK-47 | Slate

AK-47 | Slate is the Terrorists' signature assault rifle. Restraint defines this AK-47: layers of near-black over deeper black, with only the faintest slate-grey tonal shift separating the shapes. Matte and understated, the finish reads as pure shadow, a monochrome study where subtle texture does all the talking. Its rarity is Restricted · Purple: Restricted (Purple) — a mid-level rarity.

It belongs to the "The Snakebite Collection" collection and is pulled from the "Snakebite Case" case. You can grab it in these conditions: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, Battle-Scarred (float spanning 0–1). A StatTrak edition exists, complete with a kill counter, and it carries a higher price than the standard copy. A tournament Souvenir edition is around too, and collectors are especially fond of it. Pricing opens at roughly $2.56 and shifts with the condition.

Getting hold of it: the quickest route is to buy a finished copy on a marketplace (the links and prices sit above), though you can also land one from a case or drop, or swap for it with another player. As an investment it rates as inexpensive and easy to move — a solid pick for kicking off a collection. Before you commit, line the price up across a few platforms, double-check the condition (and the pattern, on skins that carry one), and only buy where escrow protection is in place.
