★ Bayonet | Blue Steel (Factory New)

The ★ Bayonet | Blue Steel (Factory New) is a Covert ★ knife finish built around a cold-blued
steel treatment rather than a painted design. Factory New covers the 0.00–0.07 band of the float scale, the cleanest grade available, so
the dark blue-gray tone reads at its most even here.

Design

Blue Steel skips paint entirely — the blade is cold blued, giving it that deep blue-gray, almost
gunmetal look straight from the treatment itself rather than an applied graphic. It carries the
flavor line "This is the malbec of weapon design," a nod to how understated the finish is.

★ Bayonet | Blue Steel (Factory New) Float and Wear

Blue Steel runs the full float range from 0.00 to 1.00, and Factory New sits right at the low end
of it — the cold-blued surface looks its most uniform here, with none of the streaking or fading that
shows up as float climbs. Since this finish uses the whole range, the gap between this grade and the
worn end is as wide as a knife finish gets. Factory New occupies the 0.00–0.07 float band.

Bayonet | Blue Steel Rarity

Rarity: Covert ★ — this sits in the gold-tier rare special ("knife") slot, not a regular Covert
weapon skin. That scarcity comes from the item tier itself, well before wear grade factors in at all.

Bayonet | Blue Steel Case and Collection

Blue Steel isn't tied to a single collection — it's one of the original knife finishes and turns up
across a long list of cases, from the CS:GO Weapon Case through the Revolver Case and several others
released over the years. The rare-special ("knife") tier drops at about 0.26% per case opening, which
is why most players buy this finish outright instead of chasing it through boxes.

Bayonet | Blue Steel Patterns

This finish has a fixed design — the paint-seed index behind any copy has no bearing on how the
cold-blued surface looks, so every copy carries the same treatment. There's no seed or "best pattern"
to hunt on Blue Steel; float and wear grade are the only things separating one copy from another.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak™ version of this knife exists, adding a permanent confirmed-kill counter that carries
through any trade or sale. There's no Souvenir version at all — knives are never included in
Major-tournament souvenir packages, regardless of which case they drop from.

Bayonet | Blue Steel Price

Factory New sits at the top of the Blue Steel's own price ladder, ahead of every lower wear, while
landing in mid-tier territory among this knife's finishes overall. It's available to buy on Skin.Land
with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

What case is the Bayonet Blue Steel in?

It isn't locked to one case — Blue Steel is one of the original knife finishes and has appeared in
a long line of boxes, including the CS:GO Weapon Case and the Revolver Case among others. That spread
is exactly why most buyers pick theirs up on the market rather than hunting a specific case.

Does the Bayonet Blue Steel have a best pattern?

No — it's a fixed design, so the paint-seed index doesn't change how the cold-blued surface looks
on any given copy. Every Blue Steel carries the same treatment; there's no seed to chase, only wear
grade and float to consider when buying.

What are the best gloves for the Bayonet | Blue Steel?

The cool blue-gray tone pairs naturally with gray, black, or navy gloves — driver or moto styles in
those cool shades keep the whole loadout consistent without competing with the blade. Steer away from
warm oranges or reds, which clash against the steel-blue base. For the best Bayonet Blue Steel glove
combo, lean into that gray-and-navy palette rather than a warm one.
