USP-S | Dark Water appeared in CS:GO on August 14, 2013. It is contained in the CS:GO Weapon Case that was introduced to the shooter in the massive “The Arms Deal” update, bringing the first-ever skins to the Counter-Strike series history.

The skin has a minimalistic design and a monochromatic color palette of gray and black. The surface of the pistol is covered with curved black stripes, creating a pattern reminiscent of camouflage.

The pattern index determines how the stripes are applied to the weapon's surface. This skin has no valuable pattern variations.

Float Value of the item can vary between 0.10 and 0.26, allowing the skin to be obtainable only in the “Minimal Wear” and “Field-Tested” exterior quality categories. As the weapon wears down, it gradually loses paint from the edges. At the highest possible float values, a relatively small amount of paint is erased from the gun's surface.

USP-S | Dark Water is categorized as the “Restricted” rarity and is available with the StatTrak kill counter. This skin is not popular among CS2 players.
