The weapon | Yorkshire is a Rare Gunsmith finish on the Nova, shipped with The Armory on 2 October 2024 and filed under Sport & Field. Valve built it in-house: no sticker stack, just high-gloss bronze and gold lacquer that catches light when you swing the camera in inspect.

Where it drops

• Sport & Field Collection (狩猎运动收藏品)

After launch you could track listings on Steam Community Market and C5GAME, or pull it from Sport & Field drop routes tied to that collection.

What you are actually buying

• Rarity: Rare · Finish: Gunsmith
• Wear: 0.00–1.00 — Factory New through Battle-Scarred all show up in the wild
• Vibe: Outdoor / field-hunt aesthetic; warm metal tones instead of busy prints
• Flavor text: "A history of violence" — short lore punch on inspect, not a gameplay stat

Gunsmith layout keeps the Nova’s lines clean: bronze and gold sit on barrel, receiver, and handguard. The sell is reflection and contrast, not a pattern seed lottery.

Inspect checklist (wear matters more than float worship)

Spin inspect and compare tiers side by side:

1. Minimal Wear / Field-Tested — Usually still reads “hunt gun polished”: gold highlights and bronze body hold up for most players.
2. Battle-Scarred — Gloss fades toward matte, aged metal; gold/bronze separation softens. Fine if you want a beaten field piece, rough if you paid for shine.
3. Factory New — Pay for unbroken gold hotspots on barrel and receiver; any scuff at the angles you stare at in third-person inspect is what you live with.

This skin is colour and lacquer, not a CSGO pattern flex. Always confirm in-client before you commit.

Shopping verdict

Worth a look if you are finishing a Sport & Field or outdoor-themed loadout and need a Nova slot in bronze/gold that matches 2024 Armory timing. Skip or go cheap if you only chase holo crafts or hyper-rare shotgun flex — this is a sensible Rare Gunsmith, not a status piece.

Budget play: MW/FT on C5GAME or Steam often balances price vs. retained shine. Splurge: FN only when the highlights in your inspect rotation look intact. Filter by wear tier, then sanity-check float against what you can see, not forum screenshots.

Editor mutterings: Rare Gunsmith Novas live or die on how much sun is left on the metal. I would not overpay for a 0.07 FT that looks BS in hand. If you already run other Sport & Field pieces, Yorkshire is the warm shotgun glue — just do not expect it to carry an entire inventory’s value.
