★ Bayonet | Scorched (Minimal Wear)

The ★ Bayonet | Scorched (Minimal Wear) is a Covert ★ knife finish built from paint applied in a sun-dappled pattern of light and shadow. Minimal Wear is a small step down from the top grade, still showing off that dappled paintwork with barely any softening.

Design

The look comes from spraying paint in a sun-dappled arrangement across the blade, breaking up the surface into patches rather than one flat coat. It ships with the flavor line "The Phoenix is not a symbol of destruction... it's a symbol of rebirth."

★ Bayonet | Scorched (Minimal Wear) Float and Wear

With a float span of 0.06–0.80, Minimal Wear lands close to the clean end of Scorched's range, just behind Factory New. The dappled patches here are only marginally softer than the very cleanest copies, still far from the roughest wear this finish can show. Minimal Wear covers about 0.07–0.15 on the float scale.

Bayonet | Scorched Rarity

Rarity: Covert ★, the rare special ("knife") tier that stands above every regular weapon grade in a case. That tier's scarcity is fixed regardless of which wear a particular copy happens to land on.

Bayonet | Scorched Case and Collection

This finish isn't tied to a single collection — it turns up across a broad spread of cases, with the CS:GO Weapon Case and the Revolver Case among the more familiar names. The rare-special tier overall pulls at roughly 0.26% per case, so most copies are bought on the market rather than unboxed fresh.

Bayonet | Scorched Patterns

There's no seed or blue-gem angle to chase here — the sun-dappled pattern is identical across every copy of this finish, with no variation to hunt. Wear and float alone account for any real difference between two Scorched knives.

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 | Scorched Price

Minimal Wear sits just below Factory New on Scorched's price ladder, and the finish as a whole remains the most accessible entry point to this knife — still a premium item, since no knife comes cheap. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is Minimal Wear a big downgrade from Factory New on the Scorched?

Not much of one. The dappled patches only look slightly softer than on Factory New, since both grades sit near the clean end of this finish's 0.06–0.80 float range.

Is there a rare pattern to look for on the Bayonet Scorched?

No, this is a fixed design — every copy shows the same sun-dappled paintwork with no paint-seed variation, so there's no blue-gem or special pattern to hunt. Only wear and float differ between individual knives.

What are the best gloves for the Bayonet | Scorched?

The gray-and-dappled look pairs well with charcoal or olive gloves for a low-key tactical set, or with tan gloves if you want a bit more contrast against the blade. For the best Bayonet Scorched glove combo, keep the palette muted rather than reaching for something flashy.
