The metal parts of the rifle are hardened and coated with blue, yellow and purple stains. The handguard and the buttstock are made of wood. The handle is painted solid brown.
Float Value of the skin ranges from 0.00 to 1.00, which makes AK-47 | Case Hardened available in all conditions. Traces of wear such as scratches and abrasions do not appear on the body of the weapon even at the highest Float Values. At levels of wear close to the maximum, the metal parts of the rifle are coated with a layer of patina, which makes the skin look much darker.
The pattern index affects the appearance of the skin as well as its price.

Patterns with a predominance of yellow are more affordable and common. The amount of blue on the central part of the receiver, the barrel, and the magazine does not significantly affect the value of the skin.
