AK-47 | Predator

The AK-47 | Predator is a CS2 skin for the Terrorist-side rifle, finished in olive and khaki with brown zebra stripes. Its mostly matte, fully patterned look suits players who favor earthy colors and an understated animal-stripe design. It comes in Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, and Battle-Scarred, with standard and Souvenir versions but no StatTrak™ option.

Description

The AK-47 | Predator applies a striped Spray-Paint finish to the Terrorist-side AK-47 rifle in CS2. Its muted olive and khaki base gives the weapon an earthy palette, while brown bands break up the surface. The pattern extends beyond the receiver to the stock, handguard, barrel assembly, curved magazine, and pistol grip. That broad coverage makes the finish feel unified rather than centered on a single illustration or logo. The mostly matte look suits players who prefer subdued colors and an animal-stripe motif over bright artwork. Buyers can choose from Factory New through Battle-Scarred, allowing the exterior to be part of the selection rather than accepting a limited set of conditions. Souvenir copies offer another version to compare alongside standard listings. On Eneba Skins, comparing float value, exterior, and version helps separate the appearance of a particular copy from its asking price.

History and Origin

AK-47 | Predator was released in CS:GO on August 14, 2013, and is now available as a skin for CS2. It arrived with The Dust Collection as part of the Arms Deal update. Valve created the design, giving it an official origin rather than a community-designer credit. The Predator finish features a spray-painted zebra stripe pattern. That release history does not establish how copies are distributed today or imply a continuing source of new supply. Current acquisition routes include buying an existing listing on the Steam Community Market and trading directly with other players. Available exteriors span Factory New through Battle-Scarred.

Finish Style

Predator uses a Spray-Paint finish to create irregular zebra-like bands across the rifle instead of separate lettering or illustrated panels. The base combines muted olive and khaki, giving the dark stripes an earthy background rather than a bright contrast color. Dark brown and reddish-brown bands add variation within the restrained palette without introducing a separate graphic element. The receiver, stock, and handguard all carry the pattern, so the main sections share the same visual theme. Painted bands also reach the barrel assembly, continuing the striped treatment toward the front of the weapon. Narrower stripes run down the curved magazine and pistol grip, adapting the motif to those smaller surfaces. Small fittings and recessed areas appear darker, providing subtle breaks between the painted sections. The mostly matte surface emphasizes the bands and subdued colors, making overall pattern coverage the finish's defining feature.

Float Value

AK-47 | Predator has a float range of 0.06 to 0.80, giving buyers a defined span to check against individual listings. Available exteriors are Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, and Battle-Scarred, so none of these standard exterior categories is excluded. Both standard and Souvenir versions exist, but there is no StatTrak version; version availability should be considered separately from cosmetic condition.

Rarity and Popularity

The AK-47 | Predator is Industrial Grade, a rarity classification separate from its float value, exterior, and whether a copy is a Souvenir. Its chance within The Dust Collection is 26.88%, which does not establish that the collection is currently an available acquisition route. Documented owners include Hyper, Devilwalk, and Aerial, though professional ownership alone does not measure wider demand for the finish.

Why it’s Popular:

• Muted olive and khaki colors suit earthy loadouts

• Zebra stripes cover the rifle rather than a single panel

• All exterior categories offer different condition choices

• Souvenir versions add a separate collecting option

• Documented ownership includes Hyper, Devilwalk, and Aerial

Price Range

The live AK-47 | Predator price range is $8.95 to $152.45, covering the skin across available exteriors and versions. Those bounds describe the whole item, not a fixed price for any named exterior or Souvenir copy. Exterior and float value help narrow a comparison to copies with similar cosmetic condition rather than treating every listing as interchangeable. Standard and Souvenir listings should also be evaluated separately, since their version labels represent different buying choices. To compare a CS2 skin price meaningfully, review the listed version, exterior, float, and asking price together before choosing a copy.

How to Obtain

1. Buy Directly through Eneba Skins

One of the fastest and most straightforward options is to purchase skins directly through Eneba Skins. You can browse available CS2 skins, compare prices, and choose the items that best fit your budget.

2. Buy on the Steam Community Market

AK-47 | Predator can be bought through individual listings on the Steam Community Market, making this a direct route to an existing copy. Check the exterior, float value, and standard or Souvenir label so the selected listing matches the intended version and condition.

3. Trade with Other Players

The skin can also be obtained by trading with another player who owns a copy, rather than buying a marketplace listing. Review the offered item's exterior, float, and version, and agree on the exchange without assuming that every Predator copy has the same value.

Trading and Investment Considerations

Professional ownership gives the Predator a documented player connection, while standard and Souvenir versions create distinct choices for buyers looking to buy, sell, or trade. Current supply trends and broad buyer demand are not established, so neither a shortage nor dependable resale activity should be assumed. Compare like-for-like exteriors and versions before judging an offer, rather than using the whole skin's price range to value a specific copy.

Reasons it Holds Value

• Documented ownership by Hyper, Devilwalk, and Aerial

• Souvenir versions broaden collecting options

• Valve-designed finish from The Dust Collection

• Distinctive striped treatment across the rifle

AK-47 | Predator receives a medium investment rating because it has documented professional ownership and Souvenir options, but these features do not establish future price growth. The main risk is uncertain supply and resale demand, so a purchase should prioritize the specific copy's appeal rather than assumed appreciation.
