Buy Bayonet skins

Buy and sell Bayonet CS2 skins

The Bayonet uses a straight blade with a fuller and compact guard. Its draw animation gives the blade a quick rotating flourish before it settles into the regular grip. In the inventory, the model belongs to the gold star rare special item tier, above Covert weapon skins.

The finish pool covers unpainted steel, military camouflage, polished finishes, pattern-driven finishes, and gem phases. In the wider CS2 knife catalog, the closest comparison is the larger M9 Bayonet. Players who want a different silhouette can also compare the curved Karambit, animation-focused Butterfly Knife, compact Flip Knife, and ring-handled Talon Knife.

Finish families and Doppler phases

The finish pool is easiest to understand by its case family. A finish name identifies the artwork, while phase, pattern seed, float, exterior, and StatTrak can distinguish listings within that finish.

• The classic pool includes Vanilla, Safari Mesh, Forest DDPAT, Boreal Forest, Scorched, Urban Masked, Stained, Blue Steel, Night, Crimson Web, Case Hardened, Slaughter, and Fade. These finishes appear in cases such as the Operation Phoenix Weapon Case, Operation Vanguard Weapon Case, and Revolver Case.
• The Chroma pool adds Bayonet Doppler, Marble Fade, Tiger Tooth, Damascus Steel, Rust Coat, and Ultraviolet. Its source pool includes the Chroma Case, Chroma 2 Case, and Chroma 3 Case. Doppler can appear as Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, Phase 4, Ruby, Sapphire, or Black Pearl.
• The Gamma pool contains Gamma Doppler, Lore, Autotronic, Black Laminate, Freehand, and Bright Water. These finishes come from the Gamma Case and Gamma 2 Case. Gamma Doppler has Phase 1 through Phase 4 and Emerald; Emerald is not a regular Doppler phase.

Vanilla is listed as Not Painted and has no float or exterior. On painted items, wear behavior depends on the finish. Case Hardened is strongly pattern-dependent because the seed controls blue placement, Fade uses a separate fade value, and Doppler or Gamma Doppler requires a phase check before two listings can be compared fairly.

How finish details shape Bayonet price

Bayonet value comes from the exact item combination rather than the model name alone. Check the following fields before comparing two listings:

• Finish and phase: Doppler gem phases and Gamma Doppler Emerald are separate variants, not labels that can be inferred from color alone.
• Float and exterior: a lower float can mean a cleaner play-side blade, but the visible effect varies by finish.
• Pattern seed and finish-specific data: blue placement matters on Case Hardened, while the fade value matters on Fade.
• StatTrak and listing condition: compare StatTrak with StatTrak and regular items with regular items.

For a budget-first search, start with the camouflage and muted steel finishes, then sort the live listings above by price. Compare items within the same finish and exterior instead of treating the lowest asking price for any Bayonet as a like-for-like benchmark.

Ways to obtain a Bayonet

A Bayonet can enter an inventory through an eligible case, a Trade Up Contract, or a direct purchase from another player. These routes offer different levels of control.

• Case opening is random. The case determines the available rare special item pool, but the buyer cannot select the knife model, finish, phase, pattern, or float.
• An eligible Trade Up Contract can return a regular knife or gloves from a collection represented by the Covert inputs. StatTrak Covert inputs can return a StatTrak knife. The exact result is still random.
• A marketplace listing shows the specific item offered for sale. This route lets the buyer choose the finish and verify item-level data before accepting a trade.

How to compare Bayonet listings on white.market

1. Use the filters above to narrow the grid by finish, phase, exterior, StatTrak, float, fade value, or pattern when those fields apply.
2. Open the individual listing and verify the full item name, finish, phase, float, pattern seed, and inspect data.
3. Compare the asking price with listings that share the same meaningful attributes. A different phase or pattern can make a nearby listing a poor benchmark.
4. Before confirming the exchange, check that the Steam trade offer contains the same item shown in the selected white.market listing.

Bayonet FAQ

Does a Bayonet give a gameplay advantage?

No. The skin changes the knife model, finish, and animations, but it does not improve damage, movement, or competitive performance.

Does a Bayonet skin wear down when it is used?

No. Float and exterior are fixed item attributes. Playing with the knife does not increase its wear.

Does Vanilla Bayonet have a float value?

No. Vanilla is a Not Painted item, so it has no paint float or exterior grade. Its blade appearance is not a low-wear version of another finish.

Can I choose the exact float and pattern before buying?

Yes. Choose an individual listing and check its item data before the trade. For phase- or pattern-dependent finishes, verify the phase or seed instead of relying only on the thumbnail.

Is Bayonet available with StatTrak?

Yes. StatTrak Bayonets exist alongside regular versions. The counter changes the item variant, not the finish artwork or the model's animations.

Is M9 Bayonet a finish of the regular Bayonet?

No. M9 Bayonet is a separate knife model with its own blade geometry and animations. A finish with the same name can exist on both models, but the items are not interchangeable.
