★ Bayonet | Slaughter (Field-Tested)

The ★ Bayonet | Slaughter (Field-Tested) is a Covert ★ knife finish carrying a zebra-stripe base under a tomato red candy coat. Field-Tested is the most worn grade this finish reaches, giving the red spatter a slightly duller, more textured look than the top two grades.

Design

Under the surface sits a zebra-stripe pattern in aluminum and chrome paints of differing reflectivity, topped with a tomato red candy coat that lets bits of that base flash through. It ships with the flavor line "Valeria doesn't pay Javier to ask questions... she pays him to pry out answers."

★ Bayonet | Slaughter (Field-Tested) Float and Wear

Slaughter's float only stretches from 0.01 to 0.26, so Field-Tested marks the bottom rung for this finish rather than a heavily aged grade — a full-range skin at this float would look far rougher than this knife ever does. The candy red coat reads a shade duller and less glossy than on Factory New or Minimal Wear, but nowhere near a battered look. Field-Tested covers about 0.15–0.26 on the float scale.

Bayonet | Slaughter Rarity

Rarity: Covert ★, the gold-tier rare special ("knife") slot that ranks above every ordinary weapon grade a case can drop. That rarity sits with the tier itself, not with whichever exterior a given copy lands on.

Bayonet | Slaughter Case and Collection

This finish belongs to no single collection — it's an original knife design pulled from a wide spread of cases, including the CS:GO Weapon Case and the Revolver Case among others. The rare-special tier overall drops at around 0.26% per case opening, so buying on the market beats waiting on an unbox for most players.

Bayonet | Slaughter Patterns

The red spatter's shape comes down to the paint seed at every wear grade, this one included. A clean, centered heart or a tight cluster is the pattern buyers chase, and it sells at a premium over a scattered spread regardless of float. Since the pattern locks in at generation and never moves with wear, a Field-Tested copy with a great seed can still beat out a cleaner-float piece with a poor one.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak™ version tracks confirmed kills permanently and carries that count through any future trade or sale. There's no Souvenir version — knives are never handed out in Major-tournament souvenir packages, no matter the case or collection behind them.

Bayonet | Slaughter Price

Field-Tested lands at the bottom of Slaughter's own price ladder as its most worn and most accessible grade, while the finish overall still sits upper-mid among this knife's lineup. Pattern quality can move an individual listing well beyond the baseline for its wear. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is Field-Tested the worst-looking grade for the Bayonet Slaughter?

It's the most worn grade available, since the finish caps out at a 0.26 float, but that's still a mild wear level overall — the red candy coat just reads a touch duller than on Factory New or Minimal Wear, not rough or damaged.

Does pattern matter more than wear on the Slaughter?

Often, yes. A clean, centered heart or tight cluster pattern carries a real premium over a scattered spread at any wear grade, since the seed is fixed for life while wear only changes gloss. A well-patterned Field-Tested can beat out a poorly patterned Minimal Wear.

Is the Bayonet Slaughter worth buying at Field-Tested?

It's a reasonable way into this finish since it sits at the bottom of Slaughter's own price ladder while still carrying the same red candy coat and pattern chase as the pricier grades. The knife itself remains a premium item either way, just the most accessible entry point for this particular finish.
