★ Bayonet | Rust Coat (Battle-Scarred)

The ★ Bayonet | Rust Coat (Battle-Scarred) is a Covert ★ knife finish showing a blade whose surfaces have rusted over while staying fully operational. Battle-Scarred is the only grade below Well-Worn, and here that weathered look reaches its heaviest.

Design

The finish plays up wear as the whole point — the blade is presented as a memento from Siege that still functions despite exterior rust taking hold. It ships with the flavor line "Scars build character."

★ Bayonet | Rust Coat (Battle-Scarred) Float and Wear

With a float range of 0.40 to 1.00, Battle-Scarred marks the far end for this finish, and unlike most Battle-Scarred skins it reaches the true top of the 1.0 scale — there's no cap softening this grade. That means the rust texture here is as heavy and pronounced as the finish ever gets. Battle-Scarred occupies the 0.45–1.00 float band.

Bayonet | Rust Coat Rarity

Rarity: Covert ★, the rare special ("knife") tier that stands above every regular weapon grade in a case. That scarcity comes from the tier itself, independent of which exterior a given copy ends up wearing.

Bayonet | Rust Coat Case and Collection

Rather than spreading across a long list of boxes, this finish drops from the Chroma Case, Chroma 2 Case, and Chroma 3 Case. Across the board, the rare-special tier pulls at about 0.26% per case, which is why most copies change hands on the market instead of coming from a fresh unbox.

Bayonet | Rust Coat Patterns

There's no pattern to hunt on Rust Coat — the design is fixed, so every copy shows the same rusted texture regardless of paint seed. No blue gem, no fade percentage, nothing to chase beyond deciding how worn you want the blade to look.

StatTrak & Souvenir

This knife is also available as a StatTrak™ version, adding a kill counter that sticks with the item permanently through every trade or sale. Souvenir versions were never made for it — knives simply don't appear in Major-tournament souvenir packages, regardless of finish.

Bayonet | Rust Coat Price

Battle-Scarred sits at the bottom of Rust Coat's own price ladder below Well-Worn, and the finish as a whole is the most accessible entry point into this knife — still a premium item overall, just the cheapest way in. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

How worn does the Bayonet Rust Coat look at Battle-Scarred?

No — the design is fixed, so the rusted surface looks the same on every copy no matter the paint seed. Wear grade and float are the only real differences between one Rust Coat and another.
