About Glock-18 | Fade
The Glock 18 is a serviceable first-round pistol that works best against unarmored opponents and is capable of firing three-round bursts. It has been painted by airbrushing transparent paints that fade together over a chrome base coat.

Glock-18 | Fade is a Restricted Glock-18 skin featuring the Fade finish. Its float value ranges from 0 to 0.08, so it can be found in Factory New to Minimal Wear condition. Lower floats look cleaner and generally command higher prices.
It is part of the 1 collection listed below rather than a standard weapon case. Souvenir editions can also appear, dropped during supported tournaments and often carrying player/team stickers.
Prices for Glock-18 | Fade vary by wear, pattern, and StatTrak availability. Use the marketplace links below to check current listings across the platforms SkinJudge reviews.
Fade released in 2013 as part of the original Assault Collection, one of the early map-themed collections that predate the weapon-case system. It carries Restricted rarity and has no StatTrak version.
Its gradient from pink through orange to yellow, radiating from the grip toward the muzzle, set the visual template that later Fade skins on weapons like the AWP would follow, making the Glock-18 version the pattern's spiritual original.
As one of the earliest Fade skins, the Glock-18 version helped establish 'fade percentage' as a way buyers and sellers describe and price these skins, a convention still used across every Fade-pattern item in the game today.
Check the fade percentage, not just the wear tier. A Factory New copy with a low fade percentage can look far less vibrant than the price might suggest. There is no StatTrak version to look for.

FAQ
- How rare is the Glock-18 | Fade?
- Glock-18 | Fade is a Restricted-tier skin. Rarity affects both drop odds and price: higher tiers are pulled less often and cost more.
- What wear conditions does Glock-18 | Fade come in?
- With a float range of 0 to 0.08, it appears in Factory New to Minimal Wear.
- Does the Glock-18 Fade have StatTrak?
- No, it predates StatTrak and has no such version.
- Why do fade percentages matter for this skin?
- The gradient's coverage is determined by a per-item pattern seed independent of wear tier, so two Factory New copies can look very different depending on how much color remains visible.
