XM1014 | Oxide Blaze

XM1014 | Oxide Blaze is a CS2 shotgun skin with a rust-brown base and contrasting white flame-like detailing. Its receiver carries the main design, while dark grips and an open-frame stock keep the surrounding parts subdued. The industrial color scheme suits players who prefer weathered-looking finishes over bright palettes. It comes in every exterior from Factory New to Battle-Scarred, with regular, StatTrak™ and Souvenir versions available.

Description

XM1014 | Oxide Blaze applies a Custom Paint Job finish to the fully automatic XM1014 shotgun in CS2. White flame-like shapes spread across the rust-brown receiver, giving the weapon a distinct contrast between pale detailing and earthy color. The barrel and magazine tube continue the brown palette with orange and dark gray mottling. Darker furniture leaves the receiver as the main visual focus rather than spreading equally bold graphics across every part. This finish suits industrial-themed loadouts and players who favor an oxidized appearance without a vivid color scheme. Professional players f0rest, tarik and mixwell are among its owners. Regular, StatTrak and Souvenir versions provide different ownership options while retaining the Oxide Blaze design. Buyers can compare the exterior, exact float value and version of individual listings before choosing a copy for play or collection.

History and Origin

XM1014 | Oxide Blaze was released on February 14, 2018, alongside the Clutch Case. Its introduction came through the Clutch Case Skins update. Hollandje, a Steam Workshop community designer, created the finish. The skin belongs to The Clutch Collection, connecting its collection identity with its original case release. Its flavor text adds a construction-themed warning against treating the weapon as structural support. Valve retired the rare drop pool on December 17, 2025, and the Clutch Case no longer drops. Existing cases can still be bought on the market and opened, so retirement did not remove the case-opening acquisition route. Today, buyers can also obtain an existing skin through marketplace listings or player-to-player trades rather than opening its original case.

Finish Style

Oxide Blaze uses the Custom Paint Job finish style to combine a rust-colored base with white detailing. The receiver's brown surface provides the foundation for the design's oxidized visual character. Irregular white flame-like shapes cover its sides and top, avoiding the appearance of a uniform stripe or repeated geometric motif. Their uneven outlines give the central body a painted, contrasting look rather than a single solid color. The barrel and magazine tube carry mottled brown, orange and dark gray coloring that extends the earthy palette forward. The ribbed fore-end and pistol grip are dark gray, with lighter highlights visible on their raised surfaces. The open-frame stock is mostly dark gray and black, with brown coloring along its rear edge. Overall, the detailed receiver stands apart from the simpler surrounding parts, keeping the finish visually focused on the shotgun's central body.

Float Value

XM1014 | Oxide Blaze has a float range of 0.00 to 0.70. Its available exteriors are Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred, so none of these exterior categories is excluded. Regular, StatTrak and Souvenir versions exist, and the version should be checked separately from the float value and exterior condition.

Rarity and Popularity

XM1014 | Oxide Blaze is a Mil-Spec Grade skin from The Clutch Collection. Its stated chance from a Clutch Case opening is 11.42%, although an opening does not guarantee this specific finish. Ownership by f0rest, tarik and mixwell gives it a professional-player connection without establishing how broadly it is traded or sought after.

Why it’s Popular:

• Rust-brown coloring contrasts with irregular white flame details

• Dark furniture keeps attention on the receiver

• Available in every exterior from Factory New to Battle-Scarred

• Regular, StatTrak and Souvenir options suit different collecting preferences

Price Range

The live XM1014 | Oxide Blaze price range is $0.07 to $50.00. These bounds cover the whole skin rather than a fixed exterior or version. For a useful CS2 skin price comparison, group listings by exterior before checking their exact float values. Regular, StatTrak and Souvenir copies should also be compared separately rather than treated as interchangeable purchases. Buyers looking to buy, sell or trade should use current individual listings instead of assuming a particular version always occupies either price bound.

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. Open the Clutch Case

Opening a Clutch Case can produce XM1014 | Oxide Blaze, with a stated chance of 11.42%. The case no longer drops, but existing cases can still be bought on the market and opened. This route offers a chance at the skin rather than a guaranteed result.

3. Buy on the Steam Community Market

The Steam Community Market provides a direct buying route for XM1014 | Oxide Blaze. Check the listed exterior and version, and confirm the float value where available before comparing offers. Buying an existing copy avoids relying on a Clutch Case opening to produce this particular finish.

4. Trade with Other Players

Player-to-player trading offers another way to obtain XM1014 | Oxide Blaze without opening a case. Confirm the offered copy's exterior, float value and version before agreeing to a swap. Compare the items on both sides of the trade rather than assuming that matching rarity grades mean matching value.

Trading and Investment Considerations

No new Clutch Cases drop, but existing cases can still add Oxide Blaze copies through openings. Its low price level and professional ownership provide context, though neither establishes trading volume or future demand. Compare regular, StatTrak and Souvenir listings by exterior and float, especially when judging whether a specific copy is worth buying or holding.

Reasons it Holds Value

• Retired case drop source limits new case supply

• Documented ownership by professional players

• Low entry cost for a distinctive play skin

• Regular, StatTrak and Souvenir collecting options

The investment rating is medium, balancing retired case drops, a low entry price and documented professional ownership. The main risk is that existing cases can continue producing this Mil-Spec Grade skin, while future demand remains uncertain. It is easier to justify as a modest play-skin purchase than as a position built around expected returns.
