What is Field-Tested in CS2?
Field-Tested (FT) is the middle wear tier for CS2 skins, covering float values from 0.15 to 0.38. Field-Tested skins show clear signs of use including scratches, edge wear, and some texture fading, but the core pattern is still clearly visible. Because the float window is large (0.23 wide), Field-Tested is the most commonly dropped wear condition.
Why Field-Tested skins are popular
Field-Tested is usually the cheapest practical wear tier with broad availability, making it the default choice for budget-conscious players. Skins like AK-47 Redline Field-Tested or M4A4 Howl Field-Tested have massive trading volume because they offer the iconic look at an accessible price.
