Ha ha ha ha! No.
Saxton Hale, in response to Miss Pauling when asked about new weapons for the mercenaries.

Decorated quality is the item quality assigned weapons which are obtained from contracts and opening weapon cases. This quality includes 6 forms of rarity: Civilian, Freelance, Mercenary, Commando, Assassin, and Elite. It also has a exterior quality, which ranges from Factory-New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, and Battle-Scarred. The exterior quality decreases from the perfect Factory-New, to the extremely worn Battle-Scarred. When equipping a weapon of this quality, the player can press the key bound to (+inspect) to play an interruptible animation which examines the weapon from multiple angles (only visible in First Person). Rarity and exterior factors are purely cosmetic, and do not effect gameplay whatsoever.

Decorated weapons unboxed from weapon cases have a chance to be Strange, a rarer chance to be Unusual, and an extremely rare chance to be both. The Strange variant adds a clock to the side of the weapon, meant to count kills, and the Unusual variant adds an effect to the weapon, typically at the end of, or on the barrel of the weapon. When the item is both Strange and Unusual, both the clock and visual effects are included.

When inspecting someone's loadout with a Decorated weapon, a 3D spinning animation will play in the place of the backpack icon. The animation also player over the loadout screen, if the player owns at least one.

The decorations and exterior qualities do not appear when running the game with dxlevel -80 or dxlevel -81. They get replaced by their regular stock weapon. In result of this, the descriptions of Decorated weapons when running the game in these DirectX levels changes, adding the extra line: "You are in DirectX 8, decorated weapons are incompatible and show as stock". Upon checking out the Gun Mettle Campaign Pass on the Mann Co. Store, a message warning the player that Decorated weapons do not work on DirectX 8 also shows up.

The hexadecimal color code for Decorate items is #FAFAFA.
