★ Bayonet | Marble Fade (Factory New)

The ★ Bayonet | Marble Fade in Factory New (FN) is a CS2 bayonet whose blade shifts from blue-violet at the tip, through yellow, to orange-red at the guard. Covert rank, with the ★ mark. It drops from the Chroma Case and from the Chroma 2 Case and the Chroma 3 Case. The finish's float ends at 0.08, so there are two wears: Factory New lies in 0.00 to 0.07, and Minimal Wear (MW) takes the remainder. That 0.00 to 0.07 is the float this wear is given.

What the ★ Bayonet | Marble Fade looks like in Factory New

By Valve's description, the blade is painted with black and silver metallic paint over a marbled medium and covered with a transparent lacquer in three colors. In practice that means blue and violet at the tip, yellow in the middle, orange and red toward the guard, all lying on dark marbled swirls. The handle is light, a gray khaki, ribbed, and the guard is silver. A fuller runs along the flat of the blade, and a round hole sits near the tip.

In Factory New the lacquer is whole across the flat of the blade. The tip and the cutting edge are the first to take wear. The wear level is set at the drop, and the bayonet stays as it came.

Where the ★ Bayonet | Marble Fade came from

The finish drops from three Chroma cases. The first of them, the Chroma Case, came out on January 8, 2015 with the Full Spectrum update.

Getting the ★ Bayonet | Marble Fade

A Bayonet with this finish drops from three Chroma cases, and the wear is random on opening. The second route is a contract. Five Covert skins from one collection turn into one rare special item, but neither the model nor the finish is chosen on the way in. The knife you want is bought as a ready listing.

Is there a StatTrak version

A StatTrak™ version of the ★ Bayonet | Marble Fade exists in the game.

Who this wear suits

Buying the ★ Bayonet | Marble Fade in this wear makes sense when:

• you want a multicolor bayonet with the lacquer untouched across the whole flat;


• your CS2 loadout leans on a blue, yellow and red palette, and the light handle leaves the blade as the main accent;


• every copy has its float on the short 0.00 to 0.07 stretch, so comparing listings by price is easier.
