★ M9 Bayonet | Blue Steel (Battle-Scarred)

The ★ M9 Bayonet | Blue Steel (Battle-Scarred) is the most worn look at this Covert ★ knife's cold-blued, gray-blue finish. It sits at the very top of Blue Steel's full 0.00–1.00 float range, the roughest this finish gets.

Design

Cold bluing gives the blade its steel-gray tone with a blue undertone, with no paint or printed graphic anywhere on it. The flavor line "This is the malbec of weapon design" ships with every copy, worn or not.

★ M9 Bayonet | Blue Steel (Battle-Scarred) Float and Wear

Blue Steel uses the entire 0.00–1.00 float span, and Battle-Scarred sits at the extreme top of it — expect heavy scuffing, visible discoloration, and the roughest surface texture this finish can show. This is as worn as a Blue Steel M9 Bayonet gets. Battle-Scarred occupies the 0.45–1.00 float band.

M9 Bayonet | Blue Steel Rarity

Blue Steel is a Covert ★ finish, the rare-special ("knife") tier that sits above every regular weapon grade from the same case pool. Wear grade plays no part in that rarity — it comes from pulling the knife slot itself.

M9 Bayonet | Blue Steel Case and Collection

This finish isn't confined to one collection — it's dropped from a wide range of cases, including the CS:GO Weapon Case and the Revolver Case among several others over the years. The knife tier across all of them sits at roughly 0.26% per opening, so most copies at this grade come from the market rather than a fresh unbox.

M9 Bayonet Blue Steel Patterns

The cold-blued look is fixed on Blue Steel, so this heavily worn copy carries the identical base finish as a mint one — the difference is entirely wear, not pattern. There's no blue gem or seed variation to hunt for on this knife.
