Sawed-Off | Highwayman (Field-Tested)
The classic Sawed-Off deals very heavy close-range damage, but with its low accuracy, high spread and slow rate of fire, you'd better kill what you hit. It has been lacquered in black and gold using a scotch thistle motif.
You don't have to hold your pinky out when pulling the trigger, but it's a nice touch

Description
The Sawed-Off | Highwayman is a Counter-Strike 2 (CS:GO legacy) weapon skin that belongs to the Highwayman finish lineup for the Sawed-Off shotgun. As part of the game’s broader CS:GO-era skin catalog, it carries forward the classic model and design language into CS2, making it a go-to pick for players who want established, recognizable aesthetics on a compact shotgun.
In CS2, this skin is classified as Restricted rarity, which places it above the most common tiers while still remaining widely sought after by players collecting specific weapon themes. While exact drop odds are not publicly guaranteed, Restricted skins typically have lower availability than base/common items, contributing to stronger demand—especially when paired with popular finish names like Highwayman.
The Sawed-Off | Highwayman is available across all standard wear levels, including Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, and Battle-Scarred—with float values ranging from 0 to 1. StatTrak™ is available, allowing owners to track weapon kills, while Souvenir status is not available, meaning it won’t be tied to souvenir event drops.
Visually, the skin follows the Highwayman pattern style and Paint index 390, giving the Sawed-Off a rugged, road-themed look that stands out on its smaller silhouette. The combination of the finish’s visual language and the shotgun’s compact design helps the skin look especially bold in first-person view and in weapon inspect animations.
To obtain it, players generally look for the skin through official in-game drops from its source container and related pool. This weapon skin is found in the Vanguard Collection and specifically appears in Operation Vanguard Weapon Case, making it a natural target for collectors running case openings tied to that collection.
Community reception for Sawed-Off skins often centers on how well they match the weapon’s high-impact, close-range identity, and Highwayman is frequently appreciated for its thematic finish and solid presence. For players building a cohesive collection around the Vanguard theme—or simply aiming for a Restricted standout on a neglected-but-fun shotgun—Sawed-Off | Highwayman remains a popular choice.
