★ Bayonet | Lore (Minimal Wear)

The ★ Bayonet | Lore (Minimal Wear) carries a Covert ★ knotwork paint job across the blade. This grade sits just below Factory New on a fairly wide float range, still showing that woven design cleanly.

Design

The blade is custom painted with a woven knotwork pattern rather than a flat color, and that layout stays identical from copy to copy. Valve is behind the finish, and the design itself carries the whole look rather than any special coating effect.

★ Bayonet | Lore (Minimal Wear) Float and Wear

With the finish ranging from 0.00 to 0.65 float, Minimal Wear lands early in that range — a small step down from Factory New rather than a big one. The knotwork stays easy to make out, with only the faintest hint of wear starting to show. Minimal Wear covers about 0.07–0.15 on the float scale.

Bayonet | Lore Rarity

Rarity: Covert ★, the rare-special ("knife") tier that stands above every regular weapon grade you'd pull from a case. That scarcity is baked into the item type itself, separate from which wear grade a given copy lands on.

Bayonet | Lore Case and Collection

Two cases carry this finish: the Gamma Case and the Gamma 2 Case. Across the board, the rare-special tier pulls at about 0.26% per opening, so buying on the market is the more common route to owning one.

Bayonet | Lore Patterns

There's no pattern variation to speak of here — the knotwork is fixed, so the paint-seed index doesn't alter the artwork from one copy to the next. Every Lore looks the same design-wise; only the wear grade and float number change what you're actually paying for.

StatTrak & Souvenir

This knife also comes in a StatTrak™ version, which adds a permanent kill counter that follows the item through trades and sales. Souvenir copies were never made — knives simply don't appear in Major-tournament souvenir packages, no matter the finish.

Bayonet | Lore Price

Minimal Wear runs a step behind Factory New on the Lore price ladder but still sits comfortably in the upper-mid range among this knife's own finishes. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

How much wear shows on a Minimal Wear Bayonet Lore?

Very little. Sitting early in the 0.00–0.65 float range, Minimal Wear still shows the knotwork clearly with only slight, subtle wear beginning to appear near the edges. It's a modest step down from Factory New rather than a visibly aged blade.

Is Minimal Wear worth it over Factory New on the Lore?

If you want the very sharpest read on the knotwork, Factory New edges it out, but Minimal Wear is close behind at a lower point on the price ladder. For most buyers the visual gap at this end of the float range is small enough that Minimal Wear is the smarter pick.

What case is the Bayonet Lore in?

You can pull it from either the Gamma Case or the Gamma 2 Case, both offering a shot at the rare-special ("knife") slot at around a 0.26% rate. Most players buy the finish directly rather than opening cases chasing it.
